Part 2 of 2. [NOTE: This video is only the first 20 minutes of the full lesson. Purchase or rent to view entire video]
This lesson consists of providing you with a Self-Tutorial on how to solve typical linear word problems (story problems or applied problems). I will show you how to solve for a specific variable in formulas. I also discuss how to covert a repeating decimal into a fraction (which was skipped in Basic Math: Lesson 6 -"Fractions") and will teach you how to convert units of measurement.
Examples of word problems done include:
Finding a number based on certain criteria.
Word problems involving some geometry (triangle, rectangle, circle).
Age problems.
Mixture problems.
Money problems (story of my life!).
Rate-Time-Distance problems.
Percent Equations/problems.
Ratio and Proportion (concepts and solving problems, including similar triangles).
Problems dealing with Unit Price.
