Literal Equations

Question 1

Solve the equation A = bh for b.

Revolt · Accepted Answer

b = A/h

Question 2

Solve the equation for b1.

Revolt · Accepted Answer

b1 = 2A/h – b2

Question 3

Describe the steps you would take to solve the given literal equation for m as shown.

Revolt · Accepted Answer

To solve the equation for m, first divide both sides by 2π to isolate the square root. Next, square both sides of the equation to remove the radical. Then, apply the power rule for fractions to simplify the squared side. Finally, multiply both sides of the equation by k to isolate m.

Question 4

The final velocity of an object moving in one dimension is given by the formula v = u + at, where u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and t is the time. Solve this equation for a.

Revolt · Accepted Answer

a = (v – u)/t

Question 8

Question 9

Revolt · Accepted Answer

The student likely made an error by not properly distributing the P in the equation A = P(1 + rt) or by forgetting to divide by P when isolating r. To solve correctly, you first distribute P to get A = P + Prt. Then, subtract P from both sides to get A - P = Prt. Finally, divide both sides by Pt to isolate r, resulting in r = (A - P) / (Pt).
