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.
How do you solve this equation- 3w 419-2w?
That's not an equation. It need a = sign before you can solve it. However you can simplify it by combining like factors
You can use the square both sides then isolate the radical method to simplify the equation below?
APEx false
Explain the difference between the directions solve evaluate and simplify?
To solve would be to rewrite the equation in terms of the variable in the equation. For example, solve: 3x-2=7. You would solve for the variable x; e.g. 3x=9 and x=3. To evaluate, you would be given an equation with a variable or variables. You would need to be given a value for the variable(s) to substitute into the equation. For example evaluate the equation for x=3; equation is x2+1. Substitute 3 in for x; or 32+1=10. To simplify, reduce the equation to its simplest form. This will involve operations such as: factoring, adding, subtracting, dividing, canceling terms, and so forth. For example simplify the equation: 3x3/9x2. The 3/9 is simplified to 1/3 and x3/x2 is simplified to x. So the original equation simplified is: 1/3 times x or (1/3)x or x/3.Which is the right answer for most of you who does not know.
What is the equation if the graph of fx3x is translated up 4 units?
I am not entirely sure what the equation is supposed to be. However, to translate something 4 units up (4 units in the y-direction), simply replace every "y" in your equation by "y - 4". Simplify the result if you want.
