    Bro. Thank you so much. i have a quiz on this in 2 weeks and my teacher did'nt explain it to me properly. I've tried watching other videos but none of them helped me and just wasted my time until I found your video. I just want to say thank you very much. You just got yourself a new subscriber.

    For number 2. Will - Sam = 9 - 7 = 2 = 6
    Both 2 and 6 are divisible by 2.
    So 1 = 3
    3 x 7 : 3 x 9
    7: 9

    Why did you flip 7x to negative and put it on both sides? And how did you get the 2

    • @vinteachesmath
      @vinteachesmath  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      9x = 7x +42, I subtracted 7x on both sides of that equation to get the x terms on both sides. 9x - 7x = 2x because 9x - 7x = (9-7)x [Distributive Property] = 2x.

  • @chelseaclarke8474

    For the first problem, what did x represent? I am a little confused.

    • @vinteachesmath
      @vinteachesmath  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Introducing an x in a ratio allows us to look at any numbers that keep that ratio. For example, the ratio 1:2, we transform to 1x:2x. So if x = 3, we get 3:6, if x = 5. we get 5:10. All those ratios 1:2, 3:6, and 5:10 are equivalent. X represents any number we can multiply the ratio by to get an equivalent ratio. We do this so that we can find the exact numbers we need in the context of the word problem.

    Thx bro but I didn't properly understand Q2👍

    • @vinteachesmath
      @vinteachesmath  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Sorry for that! That question has a lot going on. The key to understanding questions like that is plugging in real numbers to see the pattern. Once you see the pattern, define the pattern with algebra. Once you have an algebraic expression, the question is solvable.
      There is quote, I think it is from Abraham Lincoln, that goes, "Give me six hours to chop down a tree, and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe." Questions like 2 are the embodiment of that quote because for this question, you need to spend a lot of time understanding what is going on, and carefully looking for the trend to describe with algebra.
      Best wishes!
