10-5 Solving for a Variable

By The Wonderful Me!!!

 Solving for a Variable
• Solving for a variable is like solving any other
equation.
• Solve for the indicated variable.
• EX. Solve V-E + F = 2 for V.
• V-E + F = 2
• +E +E
• V+F=E+2
• - F -F
• V =2+E–F
 Solving for a Variable
• Solve V – E + F = 2 for E
• V–E+F=2
• -V -V
• -E + F = 2 – V
• -F -F
• -E=2–V–F
• (-1) · - E = 2 – V – F · (-1)
• E = -2 + V + F
 Solving for a Variable
• Solve A = ½ bh for h
 Solving for a Variable
• Solve a² + b² = c² for a
 Solving for a Variable
• Solve the formula for surface area of a
cylinder for h.
• S = 2πr² + 2πrh
 Solving for y and graphing
• 2x + 3y = 6
