How Will This Worksheet on "Solve for a Variable in Terms of Other Variables" Benefit Your Student's Learning?

  • Improves problem-solving skills by using algebra to find unknowns.
  • Aids in understanding the relationship between variables.
  • Teaches the students how to modify equations to identify specific variables, which strengthens critical thinking.

How to Solve for a Variable in Terms of Other Variables?

  • Determine which variable you want to solve for in terms of the other variables present in the equation.
  • Use algebraic operations to isolate the target variable on one side of the equation. This is often done by performing inverse operations. 
  • Now, simplify the equation by combining like terms if possible.

Solved Example

Q. Solve for xx in terms of vv, ww, yy, and zz. \newlinezv=xywzv = -xyw \newlinex=x = ______
Solution:
  1. Identify Operation: We have the equation: \newlinezv=xywzv = -xyw\newlineWhich operation should be used to isolate xx?\newlineIn zv=xywzv = -xyw, xx is multiplied by yw-yw.\newlineWe should use division to isolate xx.
  2. Use Division: Divide both sides by yw-yw to solve for xx.zvyw=xywyw\frac{zv}{-yw} = \frac{-xyw}{-yw}
  3. Divide and Simplify: Simplify both sides of the equation. x=zvywx = \frac{zv}{-yw}
