It very much depends on the equation. The procedure for solving an equation with just one variable is so very different from the procedure for finding solutions to non-linear equations in several variables.

What does SOLVE stand for in math?
"Solve an equation" means "find out, for which values of the variable or variables is the equation true".
Can you solve for a variable in a equation?
Yes, that is often possible. It depends on the equation, of course - some equations have no solutions.
Which is the best way to solve the equation the square root of x equals m?
It depends on which variable you wish to solve for.
What is an equation with one or two variables?
When you solve a one-variable equation, your goal is to isolate the variable.To isolate the variable means to make it be alone on one side of the equals sign.In the equation shown here, you can isolate the variable by subtracting 9 from both sides of the equation and simplifying
What should be added to both sides of this equation to solve for the variable 37 -5 y?
32
Can you solve for a variable in an equation?
Sure. You can always 'solve for' a variable, and if it happens to be the only variable in the equation, than that's how you solve the equation.
What is the math term VEST?
variable equation solve it test it
What number when substituded for the variable in an equation makes the equation true?
you have to solve the actual equation in order to answer this about your variable
Can you solve for a variable in an expression?
No, you can only simplify an expression. To solve for a variable, it must be in an equation.
Can you solve for a variable in an expression or equation?
you can only solve for one in an equation so it can equal something
Can you solve a variable with an equation?
When an equation has a variable in it (only one), then there are only certainvalues the variable can have that will make the equation a true statement."Solving" the equation means finding those values for the variable.
How do you solve an equation with 1 variable?
carefully
When you solve equation describe how you know when there will be a infinite solutions?
If the solution contains one variable which has not been fixed then there are infinitely many solution.
What does SOLVE stand for in math?
"Solve an equation" means "find out, for which values of the variable or variables is the equation true".
What does solve the equation mean?
Find values for the variable that satisfy the equation, that is if you replace those values for the variable into the original equation, the equation becomes a true statement.
How do you solve an equation with a variable that is a fraction?
You solve the equation the same way as you would any other equation. Whether the variable is a fraction or otherwise will only become clear once you solve the equation. In other words, you don't initially KNOW whether the solution will be a fraction or not.
How can you find a variable in math?
You find, or construct, an equation or set of equations which express the unknown variable in terms of other variables. Then you solve the equation(s), using algebra.You find, or construct, an equation or set of equations which express the unknown variable in terms of other variables.
