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


What do you do when you have a negative variable?

When you have a negative variable in an equation that you are trying to solve for, you multiply each side of the equation by -1. If it is an inequality such as <, you would flip the sign to > and vice versa.


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.


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".


How do solve for the variable over a number in a linear equation?

Well a variable in a number in a linear equation is basically the variable divided by a number. So if you have x over 10, it is basically x times 1/10. You can solve by having either another equation and use either point slope or y=mx+b.


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.


Can you solve an variable in an equation?

You may want to be a little more specific about what your question is asking....... you can solve a variable in an equation or expression. For example: 1+2=y just remember, you arnt necessarily "solving" a variable, but I guess you could say that considering a variable can change continuously. Be sure to consider that if you do "solve" a variable you end up with a constant ( a never-changing number) therefore, it is no longer a variable, but just an answer. Hope that helped! :-)
