HAWKES LEARNING SYSTEMS math courseware specialists Copyright © 2010 Hawkes Learning Systems. All rights reserved. Solving Formulas for One Variable o One common task in applied mathematics is to solve a given equation in two or more variables for one of the variables. o Solving for a variable means to transform the equation into an equivalent one in which the specified variable is isolated on one side. o This is accomplished by the same methods we have already used to solve equations in Section 2.1.

HAWKES LEARNING SYSTEMS math courseware specialists Copyright © 2010 Hawkes Learning Systems. All rights reserved. Distance and Interest Problems Good examples of linear equations arise from certain distance and simple interest problems. The basic distance formula is where is distance traveled at rate for time. The simple interest formula is where is the interest earned on principal invested at rate for time.

Example: Interest Problems Sarah invested $8,000 in a global technology mutual fund which had an annual return rate of 14%. What amount did she earn on her investment after 1 year? Given : P = $8000 r = 14% = 0.14 and t = 1 I = (8000)(0.14)(1) I = 1120 She earned $1,120 in interest on her investment.
