What is a sentence with one or more variables?
well, an equation with one variable is a one step equation and an equation with more than 2 variables is a multi-step equation
What is the difference between an ordinary differential equation and a partial differential equation?
ordinary differential equation is obtained only one independent variable and partial differential equation is obtained more than one variable.
Does an equation have one true solution?
-- If the equation has only one variable (like 'x' or 'y'), and the only power of the variable anywhere in the equation is '1', then the equation has one solution. -- If the variable appears raised to powers higher than '1', then there are as many solutions as the highest power of the variable. -- If the equation has two or more variables, then there are an infinite number of solutions.
Why are linear equations also called first-degree equation?
Equations can be classified according to the highest power of the variable. Since the highest power of the variable in a linear equation is one, it is also called a first-order equation.
What it is called when you isolate a variable on one side of an equation?
That is called "solving for a variable". If there is only one variable in the equation, then it is a "solution". For example, 3x + 4y = 13 can be solved for x as 3x = -4y + 13 x = -(4/3)y + 13/3 This is solved for x. Another equation with only one variable: 5z - 6 = 4 5z = 10 z = 2 This is a solution.
What is is an equation with more than one variable called?
Simultaneous equation* * * * *No, simultaneous equations are two or more equations that have all to be true at the same time (simultaneously) for the solution.An equation with more than one variable is a multivariate equaion.Area = 0.5*Length*Height or a = 0.5*l*h for the area of a triangle has more than one variables, but it is certainly not simultaneous.An equation with a variable is called a single variable equation. An equation that has more than one variable is called as a multi-variable equation. A polynomial equation has one variable in different powers: a common example is quadratic equations.
What is the term for an equation with more than variable?
An equation with more than one variable is called a multivariate equation.
what is called an equation that contains more than one variable?
Multivariable equation
What is it called when you have to get the variable alone on one side of an equation?
It is to make the variable the subject of the equation.
Equation that contains more than one variable?
A bivariate equation.
When a variable appears in the denominator of one or more terms it is called equation?
Only if it has an equality sign otherwise it is an expression.
An expression that contains at least one variable is called an algebraic expression?
it is a one-step equation
What is an equation that is not true for any value of a variable?
linear equation in one variable
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 is an equation that expresses a relationship between more than one variable?
a formula
How do you solve systems by elimination?
Select one equation from a system of linear equations. Select a second equation. Cross-multiply the equations by the coefficient of one of the variables and subtract one equation from the other. The resulting equation will have one fewer variable. Select another "second" equation and repeat the process for the same variable until you have gone through all the remaining equations. At the end of the process you will have one fewer equation in one fewer variable. That variable will have been eliminated from the system of equations. Repeat the whole process again with another variable, and then another until you are left with one equation in one variable. That, then, is the value of that variable. Substitute this value in one of the equations from the previous stage to find the value of a last variable to be eliminated. Work backwards to the first variable. Done! Unless: when you are down to one equation it is in more than one variable. In this case your system of equations does not have a unique solution. If there are n variables in your last equation then n-1 are free to take any value. These do not have to be from those in the last equation. or when you are down to one variable you have more than one equation. If the equations are equivalent (eg 2x = 5 and -4x = -10), you are OK. Otherwise your system of equations has no solution.
What reduces an equation that has two variables to an equation that has one variable. It is then possible to find the solution for this variable.?
substitution
