<strong>Chapter</strong> 98 Solving Equations and Inequalities<br />
Step 3 Use the multiplication property of equality to get just one x isolated on<br />
either side of the equation.<br />
Step 4 Check the solution in the original equation if necessary.<br />
If the original equation contains fractions, you can begin by multiplying each side<br />
by the LCD for all fractions in the equation.<br />
Evaluating Formulas [9.6]<br />
6. When w 5 8 and l 5 13<br />
the formula P 5 2w 1 2l<br />
becomes P 5 2 ? 8 1 2 ?13<br />
5 16 1 26<br />

In mathematics, a formula is an equation that contains more than one variable.<br />
For example, the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is P 5 2l 1 2w. We<br />
evaluate a formula by substituting values for all but one of the variables and then<br />
solving the resulting equation for that variable.
