3. Lesson 3.1 Working with Formulas

4. Formulas Formulas are general rules or principles stated mathematically. Caution: Capital letter variables are generally different (values) than lower case variables.

5. Evaluating Formulas When given all but one value within a formula we are able to substitute the given values and solve for the unknown. We can either substitute into the formula as given or rearrange the formula to isolate the unknown variable.

6. Simple Interest I=Prt A savings account of $3500 is left for 9 months and draws simple interest at a rate of 7%. A) how much interest is earned? B) what is the balance in the account at the end of the 9 months? (time (t) is in years)

7. Solving for Different Variables Distance formula: d=rt Solved for “d” in terms of “r” and “t” Solve for “t” in terms of “d” and “r”

8. Solving for Different Variables Temperature conversion: Solve for “C” in terms of “F”

9. Cost Total cost “C” of producing “x” items can be found by the formula: where “a” is the cost per item and “k” is the fixed costs (rent, utilities, and so on).

10. Cost The total cost to produce 80 dolls is $1097.50. If each doll costs $9.50/each to produce, find the fixed costs. Solve for k in terms of C and a
