Title: Who Rembers Their Algebra?
Post by: ScottyBoy on May 21, 2009, 07:31:17 PM
I found this one easy, can you get it?

  4R -4 = 3R +10     What number does "R" represent?

Show your work, you will be graded....... OK, not really.  :lol: :lol:

  4R -4 = 3R +10
4R - 3R = 10 + 4
1R = 14
R = 14

Thank you

I can't believe how much I forgot!  I had two years of algebra with an average over the two years of 98% and both years 100% on the final exams.  And I had no idea how to solve that problem!   :idiot:

LOL Jeanne Lee Math is something like a muscle.  If you  don't loose it you will loose it.  I still use it as I help the girls.
