Examples of Equations with Both Rational and Irrational Numbers

Both rational and irrational numbers can be referred to as real numbers, but when it comes to their properties, there are a few differences. You can represent a rational number in the form P/Q where P and Q are integers and Q ≠ 0. For irrational numbers, you can't write them in simple fractions. 2/3 […]

Solving Basic Algebra Using Steps and Revisions

Algebra is a type of math that focuses on solving expressions that use a combination of symbols and numbers. We call these symbols variables and the numbers constants. For example, x, 3xy, and 6x+1 are all algebraic terms. Back in the good old days of archaic algebra, schools trained us in the math that develops tools, software. and […]

Examples of Coefficients and How To Solve Them

You may not think you have a use for coefficients and statistics, but you'd be wrong. Do you know that you do statistics every single day? When you woke up this morning, you made a decision to brush your teeth, to have your bath, and to take breakfast. These things would not have been possible […]

Solving For Y in Terms of X Using Fractions

The first step to solving any mathematical equation is to understand the question. For instance, if someone says to you, "my age is twice yours," and you know that you are fifteen years old, then it won’t be hard for you to figure out that the person is 30 years old. This same statement can […]

Determining Velocity with Time and Change in Acceleration

Every object experiencing an acceleration must have a velocity. This is explained by a branch of physics which is called dynamics. It's an aspect of physics where you study the motion of an object and the forces acting on them. We can't talk about velocity without talking about speed. By definition, speed is the rate […]

Subtracting Functions with Fractions

In modern mathematics, you will most likely encounter functions. In mathematics, a function is a binary relationship between two or more variables. You can think of the variables as sets, and the relationship is such that an element of one set maps exactly to another element of the other set. A function is a law that […]

Solving Absolute Value Equations

Absolute value for most of us is a brief unit in math, and we hardly touch it again. However, if you need a refresher course or are diving into more complicated absolute value equations, allow us to help you! To find absolute zero, count how far away a number is from zero on a number […]

How To Add Fractions and Mixed Fractions

Fractions are part of everyday life. They're used in every field, from statistics to cooking. From the estimating rainfall to telling time, they're a measurement of different quantities related to any measurable substance. Fractions in simpler terms are a part of an equally divided segment. In more precise mathematical terms, the fraction is used to […]

Calculating Pitch and Rise With Algebra

Roofing types, roofing designs, roofing materials, and roof categories are among the important considerations when constructing a building. When all these are settled, the roof's configuration, usually defined by the pitch and rise, needs to be calculated. A roof is a structure that covers the top of a building or a vehicle. Roofs are required […]

Multiplying and Dividing Integers Examples

Integers are perhaps one of the easiest things to work with in mathematics. We start working with integers from the time we start school, maybe even sooner. It begins with basic counting, then addition and subtraction, multiplication, division, and beyond. Without integers, we would not have math as we know it. Multiplying and dividing integers […]
