Learn how to solve equations from word problems. A word problem is a real-world simulation of a mathematics principle. We can ...

To find solutions from graphs, look for the point where the two graphs cross one another. This is the solution point. For example, the solution for the graphs \(y = x + 1\) and \(x + y = 3\) is the ...

In this video we are going to focus on rearranging the variables of this literal equation so that we can solve for a.

Solve the equation \(5(2c - 3) = 19\). The equation contains a set of brackets. The easiest way to solve equations with brackets is to expand the brackets. \(\text{Area of a rectangle} = \text{base} ...

In a recent study from our research group, we looked into how different characteristics of mathematical word problem-solving tasks may influence elementary schooler’s performance. Mathematical word ...
