The mathematical process the entails rewriting a product as a sum by multiplying each term in the first factor by each term in the second factor.
To solve any equation, follow the three step process
- the first step to solve an equation is simplify both expression independently
To solve any equation, follow the three step process
- Introduce the new operations to both expression
To solve any equation, follow the three step process
repeat steps 1 and 2 until you arrive at x = #
To solve any equation, follow the three step process:
1) Simplify both expressions independently, 2) Introduce the same new operation to both expressions, 3) repeat steps 1 and 2 until you get the variable by itself on one side and a single value on the other side.
