Writing Linear Equations from Word Problems
供稿人: Koval

In your equations, do not enter 1x or -1x, just x or -x

(for example:  y = 1x + 3 should just be y = x + 3)

 

Also, do not enter a plus negative, just subtract. 

(for example y = 2x + -3 should just be y = 2x - 3)

 

Do not enter + 0.

(for example y = -3x + 0 should just be y = -3x)

 

Finally, put the x-term first.  y = 25 - 2x should be

entered as y = -2x+25 (even though both are correct)
