The video tutorial covers solving literal equations, which involve equations with multiple variables. It provides examples of isolating specific variables in various formulas, such as perimeter, simple interest, and volume. Techniques like using properties of equality and handling fractions are demonstrated to solve for variables like side length, principal, width, and height.

What is a literal equation?

• An equation with only constants

• An equation with no variables

• An equation with more than one variable

• An equation with only one variable

In the formula P = 2L + 2W, how do you isolate W?

• W = 2L - P

• W = P + 2L

• W = P / 2L

• W = (P - 2L) / 2

How do you solve for y in the equation X + 5Y = 15?

• Y = (15 - X) / 5

• Y = 15 - X

• Y = 5 / (15 - X)

• Y = X / 15

In the equation X = (A + B) / 2, what is the first step to solve for B?

• Add A to both sides

• Divide both sides by 2

• Subtract A from both sides

• Multiply both sides by 2

What is the solution for X in the equation 3(2X + Y) = 5Y + 3?

• X = (2Y + 3) / 6

• X = (2Y + 3) / 5

• X = (2Y - 3) / 6

• X = (2Y - 3) / 5

How do you solve for Y in the equation 3/Y = 7 + 2X?

• Y = 3 - (7 + 2X)

• Y = 3 * (7 + 2X)

• Y = 3 + 7 + 2X

• Y = 3 / (7 + 2X)
