Equations, Formulas, and the Problem-Solving Process 2.1 1.Verify solutions to equations. 2.Use formulas to solve problems.
2
Equation: Two expressions set equal. Solution: A number that makes an equation true when it replaces the variable in the equation. What’s the difference? ExpressionEquation SimplifiedSolved True False
3
To Check a Possible Solution Replace the variable in the equation with the value. If the resulting equation is true, the value is a solution.
