    We had a teacher with a doctorate in mathematics. I wish she could have explained this so easily to us. Sometimes having a doctorate does not make one a good teacher. Thanks for making this easier to understand!

      Actually they help u to solve the equation but not to help their student know how to understand the method 'concepts' well, they fail to understand each student. What you do now is just summarize from ur knowledge u got from ur teacher in school

    At school I was never able to understand the algebra method 'concepts' well, and I only realized it now. Because at school we only focus on solving equations. We don't understand in focus and detail the method 'concept' for doing this. We don't understand it in its entirety so we just 'know' that to solve the equation it is only necessary to just 'follow' what's teacher did. Actually teacher doesn't do something wrong they great at teaching but they fail to know whether each student automatically understands a method in detail

    With checking comprehension, some y values don’t share a LSM. Can we multiple just one equation by a number so it matches the other?

  • @vernie7882
    @vernie7882 4 роки тому +1

    Can you explain where you got: if A = B and C = D then A + C = B + D and that it proves that it applies to the equation above? It makes sense by itself but how do I know if the two equations are in any way related to that logic and how it helps us in solving them?

    • @zerglin9000
      @zerglin9000 4 роки тому +2

      For his example, A is the value of the first equation on the left of the equal sign and B is the value on the right.
      C is the value of the first equation on the left of the equal sign and D is the value on the right.
      so his two equations would be
      A = B
      C = D
      so if A=B and C=D, then A + C = B + D.
      This is relevant because we can use this information to do elimination, as we know that by adding or subtracting B on one side, we can add or subtract D on the other side to preserve the equality in our equations.
      it makes sense if you assign values to your variables. EX: when A is equal to 1, well A = B so 1 = B.
      This means when you are adding or subtracting one set of equations (A = B) to your other set of equations, you are preserving the original equality: eg not changing the values for your equations.

  • @UmbralCosmos
    @UmbralCosmos 5 місяців тому

    For those like me who couldn't understand WHY elimination works, here's a description I wrote for my small brain:
    So our intersection point is (8, 35/2)
    Now let us display elimination with the actual values of x and y.
    -3 . 8 + 2 . 35/2 = 11 = -24 + 35 = 11
    What we are doing is basically ADDING THE SAME VALUE TO BOTH SIDES OF THE EQUATION.
    5 . 8 - 2 . 35/2 = 5 = 40 - 35 = 5 We could just add 40 - 35 to the 11, instead of 5, after all 40 - 35 = 5
    +___________________
    Now check this out... 16 = 16
    So the process of elimination is just altering both sides of the equation, but using different forms of the same value for each side of the equals sign.

  • @azizghalib495
    @azizghalib495 6 років тому +3

    Thank you professor. But could you elaborate on how does the logic of A+C=B+D relates to system of equations. In other words, what variable corresponds to which term.

    • @zerglin9000
      @zerglin9000 4 роки тому +5

      For his example, A is the value of the first equation on the left of the equal sign and B is the value on the right.
      C is the value of the first equation on the left of the equal sign and D is the value on the right.
      so his two equations would be
      A = B
      C = D
      so if A=B and C=D, then A + C = B + D.

    • @Teiwaz111
      @Teiwaz111 2 роки тому

      6x + 6y = -24
      3x - 3y = 48
      Multiply the second equation by 2
      6x + 6y = -24
      6x - 6y = 96
      Now add them up to get rid of y
      12x + 0y = 72
      Solve for x
      x = 72/12
      x = 6
      Now use that in the second equation to solve for y
      3*6 - 3y = 48
      18 - 3y = 48
      -3y = 30
      -y = 10
      y = -10
      There are no alternative answers, as there is no alternative medicine - it either is an answer or not, it's either medicine or not.

      A solution to one equation won't mean it will be a solution to the other equation. You want to find a solution for both equations.
