Excel Solver Tool Quiz

This video tutorial demonstrates how to use the Solver tool in Excel to solve linear equations and systems of equations. It begins with setting up the Solver add-in, followed by solving a simple linear equation with one variable. The tutorial then progresses to solving a system of two linear equations with two variables, and finally, a system of three linear equations with three variables. Each example includes step-by-step instructions on setting up the equations in Excel, using the Solver tool to find solutions, and verifying the results.
