What is the first step to solve $$W = A/L$$ for A?

Multiply both sides by L to get $$A = WL$$ .

Solve for A in the equation $$A - B = C$$ .

Add B to both sides to get $$A = C + B$$ .

If $$y = \frac{z}{x}$$ , how do you solve for x?

Multiply both sides by x and then divide by y to get $$x = \frac{z}{y}$$ .

How do you solve $$D = rt$$ for t?

Divide both sides by r to get $$t = \frac{D}{r}$$ .

What is the first step to solve $$Ax + B = C$$ for y?

Subtract B from both sides to isolate the term with y.

If $$A = 2B + C$$ , how do you solve for B?

Subtract C from both sides and then divide by 2 to get $$B = \frac{A - C}{2}$$ .

What is the purpose of rearranging equations?

Rearranging equations helps to express one variable in terms of others, making it easier to solve for specific variables.

What does it mean to perform inverse operations?

Inverse operations are operations that undo each other, such as addition and subtraction or multiplication and division.

How do you solve $$y = mx + b$$ for m?

Subtract b from both sides and then divide by x to get $$m = \frac{y - b}{x}$$ .

What is the relationship between variables in a literal equation?

The relationship shows how one variable depends on or is affected by others, often expressed through algebraic manipulation.

What is the significance of solving literal equations in real life?

Solving literal equations allows us to model and solve real-world problems involving relationships between different quantities.
