Solving Linear Equations

Topic:- Linear Equation


A mathematical expression that has an equal sign and linear expressions is called a Linear equation.

A number that you don't know,often represented by "x" or "y" is called a variable.

We solving linear equations by clicking and dragging a number to the "other" side of the equal sign. Remember that you are "isolating" the unknown "X" to solve the problem.
(Example is provided below.)

Question:-

Solve 2x-18=15

Answer:-

This math help is a part of linear equations.

2x-18=15

Add 18 to both sides

2x-18+18 = 15 + 18

2x = 15+18

2x = 33


divide by 2 on both sides


2x      33
----- = -------
2        2


  x = 16.5

16.5 is the Answer.

How to find volume of a cylinder

Topic :- Volume of cylinder

A cylinder is one of the most basic curvilinear geometric shape, the surface formed by the points at a fixed distance from a given straight line, the axis of the cylinder.

Here is one sample problem on how you can find the volume.

Question:-
In a cylinder radius is 3 inches and height is 8 inches ,find the volume of the cylinder.

Solution:-

Formula for cylinder volume= Π r² h


So Π =3.14

r =radius=3

h =height=8

Hence, Volume of the cylinder

= 3.14 * (3)²*8

= 3.14 * 9 * 8

= 226.08


So the volume of the cylinder is
226.08 cubic inches.

A problem on Simplifying Algebraic Fractions

Fractions is a basic section of math where student get to learn how to do fractions, types of fractions and how to simplify fractions involving algebraic terms or numeric terms as shown in the below problem.


Topic : Simplifying Algebraic Fractions

Below problem is an algebra question which explains how to do fraction.

Problem : Show the steps that you would take to solve the following algebraically




What potential solution did you obtain? Explain why this is not a solution.

Solution :










=> 3 * 2 = 2x - 3x + 9

=> 6 = - x + 9

=> - x + 9 = 6

=> - x = 6 - 9

=> -x = - 3

=> x = 3

This is not a solution because at x = 3, the denominators of the terms at the right hand side and the left hand side become ‘zero’. So, x = 3 is only a potential solution and not a solution.

Using Shell or Disc Method to Find Volume of the Solid

Disc method and Shell(cylinder) method of integration are the two different methods of finding volume of solid of a revolution, using rectangular coordination system the functions are defined in terms of x in the below problem.

Topic : Disc or Cylinder Method of Finding Volume of the Sphere.
Problem : Use the disc or shell method to find the volume of the solid generated by revolving the regions bounded by the graphs of the equations about the specified line y = 8.
y=x³ y=0, x=2
Solution :
Here the solid is rotated along x-axis
y = x³ => x = (y)^1/3

or x = y^1/3

when y = 8, x = (8)^1/3 = (2³)^1/3 = 2^3*1/3 = 2

So a = 0, b = 2

Volume of a Solid by rotating about y = 8 is given by:

V = 2π₀∫²(y)^1/3 . y dy

= 2π₀∫²(y)^4/3 dy

= 2π[y^7/3/(7/3)₀]²

= 2π[(2)^7/3/(7/3)- (0)^7/3/(7/3)]

= 2π[((2⁷)^1/3/(7/3)]

= 2π ³√(128)/(7/3)

= 6.³√(128)π/7

= 4.32π

Word problem on Geometry construction - Ellipse

Here is a word problem on geometrical construction of geometrical figure called Ellipse, where maximum distance between two points is calculated.

Topic : Ellipse Geometry Construction

Focus point, elliptical orbit and major axis are few important terms used in this Ellipse concept.

Question : Hally's comet has an elliptical orbit with the sun at one focus and a major axis of 1,636,484,848 miles. The closest the comet comes to the sun is 54,004,000miles. What is the maximum distance from the comet to the sun?

Solution :













So SC = 54,004,000miles
maximum distance from the comet to the sun will be DS

That is when comet comes at D there is a maximum distance from sun

So SD = CD - SC
where CD is the major axis = 1,636,484,848 miles

SD = 1,636,484,848 miles - 54,004,000miles
SD = 1582480848 miles

So the maximum distance is 1,582,480,848 miles

Hope the attributes involved in ellipse concept are understood.

Question to Prove Rectangle Inscribed the Circle Properties

Topic : Rectangle Inscribed the Circle

Question : If RTCE is a rectangle, then show that RC is the diameter of the circle.









Solution :
Since ∟RTC = 90º
So measure of arc REC = 180
mREC = 180º
This shows that the arc REC is half of the circle as the total measure of circle is 180º X 2 = 360º

That means arc REC forms a semi circle
Hence RC passes through the center of the circle or we can say that RC is the diameter of the circle.
Hence proved.
