What is the ultimate goal when solving equations? What do you want your final answer to look like?

STALIN [3.7K]2 years ago

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\text{To get x on one side of the equation:} \ \ x = ...}

Step-by-step explanation:

When we solve for an equation, our goal is to find the value of the variable. Any variable can be used, but for the time being let’s assume we use x.

We can algebraeically solve equations until we get the value of x - in which we will have x equal to something.

Say we have the equation 5x+5=20. Our goal is to find the value of x. <u>We can do this by getting x isolated on one side so we have something equal to x</u>.

We can subtract 5 from both sides and divide both sides by 5.

5x=15\\\\x=3

We now know the value of x since it’s on one side of the equation.

Hope this helped!

HELP <br><br>Determine whether the relation is a function<br><br> y=2w=2​
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Hi there!

I might be able to help you!

It is NOT a function.

<u>Determining whether a relation is a function on a graph is relatively easy by using the vertical line test. If a vertical line crosses the relation on the graph only once in all locations, the relation is a function. However, if a vertical line crosses the relation more than once, the relation is not a function</u>. <u>X = y2 would be a sideways parabola and therefore not a function.</u> Good test for function: Vertical Line test. If a vertical line passes through two points on the graph of a relation, it is <em>not </em>a function. A relation which is not a function. The x-intercept of a function is calculated by substituting the value of f(x) as zero. Similarly, the y-intercept of a function is calculated by substituting the value of x as zero. The slope of a linear function is calculated by rearranging the equation to its general form, f(x) = mx + c; where m is the slope.

A relation that is not a function

As we can see duplication in X-values with different y-values, then this relation is not a function.

A relation that is a function

As every value of X is different and is associated with only one value of y, this relation is a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's up there!

God bless you!
