    Recently went back to university for a new degree. First time I've been in classes in about ten years. Algebra and trig are absolutely killing me as I'm realising how utterly weak my foundations are in most maths at the moment. Your channel has been amazing to help me relearn and catch up on things. I'm still far behind, but you definitely help relax some of that stress. I will always smash that like button.

    Honestly, I have never seen equation systems solved in this way. At my school we always isolate the first variable, so it can be but into the next equation, to solve the next variable so it can be put into the last: so you'll end up with an equation with only 1 variable. Therefore this is mindblowing to me. Thank you!

    My ONLY problem with this video is how he solved the first equation. I have on my paper a problem that can’t be solved with that second equation multiplication, so I need to have a different set of steps to complete it. This video only does something you can do in a specific group of situations, and doesn’t help when the 3 variable system of equations isn’t able to do that last elimination that you did. It would help many people to see how else you can solve a system without that last shortcut.

    • @RomanNicolich
      @RomanNicolich 3 года назад +11

      The reason you have to multiply the first equation by 2 is so the Y’s cancel out. At first you’ll see that the first equation has y and the 3rd has -2y. Since we’re trying to cancel them out they have to have the same value with opposite signs, which would be 2y and -2y. After you multiply the 1st equation by two now the 1st equation has 2y, the 2nd equation still has -2y so they cancel out when you add. You would pretty much follow the same logic for the one that gets multiplied by -1, it’s to make it so one of the variables gets canceled out. Also, incase you were confused on this multiplying the whole thing doesn’t matter because it can still be divided by that same value to get the original equation. I hope this helped! :)

    “A, B, and C have 2150 yen collectively. A has 120 yen more than B does. After C gives B 2/5ths of his money, B now has 220 yen more than A. How much money did A originally have?”
    They say it's a problem that even middle schoolers can solve, but wow. Maybe I'm just dumb. I can't figure anything out.
    (B+120) + B + C = 2150
    An + (B+2/5C) + 3/5C = 2150

      A = 710
      B = 590
      C = 850
      A originally had 710 yen. The A, B, and C values are all BEFORE they gave money to each other.
      I was able to gather the following equations from this problem.
      A + B + C = 2150
      A = B + 120
      (2/5) C + B = A + 220
      Now I will replace "A" with "B + 120".
      (B + 120) + B + C = 2150
      (2/5)C + B = B + 120 + 220
      In the second equation, it looks like I can solve C since the B's cancel each other out.
      (2/5)C + B = B + 120 + 220
      (2/5)C = 340
      C = 850
      Using C, I can solve for B in the first equation.
      (B + 120) + B + 850 = 2150
      2B = 1180
      B = 590
      Now, I can use the very first equation I wrote and solve for A.
      A + 850 + 590 = 2150
      A = 710
      I can now use the three original equations and check my work.
      710 + 590 + 850 = 2150
      710 = 590 + 120
      (2/5)850 + 590 = 710 + 220
      The above statements are true.
      Unless you find that my original equations are incorrect, this is one way to solve.

    • @UNITED_STATES_OF_AMERICA5
      @UNITED_STATES_OF_AMERICA5 2 месяца назад

      So he multiplied by -1 because he want to do it more simpler so he can do it and also because subtracting is kind of confusing when you have a negative stacked on top of each other you can accidentally miss the sign and that will ruin the whole thing.
      Example: 2x+y=7
      11x+2y=20
      ------
      2x+y=7(2)
      11x+2y=20 -
      ------
      4x+2y=14
      11x+2y=20 -
      --------
      7x=7
      x=1 ( I know this is wrong because the x is supposed to be negative because 4-11=-7)
      So we sub the x=1 into prob 1
      2+y=7
      ----
      y=7-2
      ----
      y=5
      BUT if we do it the right way where x is equal to -1
      2x+y=7
      ----
      -2+y=7
      ----
      y=7+2
      ----
      Y=9
      As you can see if we get the signs wrong on the first one that you solve it will become wrong for the entire thing

    x*cos a + y*cos b + z*cos c =0
    x*sin a * 2l + y*cos b * 3l + z* sin c * 4l = 0

      you multiply one equation by a certain number to make a specific variable cancel out, like if one equation was : 2x+3y+2z = 25 : and the second equation was : 5x+7y-z = 25 : and you wanted z to cancel out, you multiply the entire second equation by 2 so -z could turn into -2z which cancels out the first equation's z which is positive 2z

    At 1:45, why did you choose 2? It wasn't explained.

      He used the third equation and he had to multiply by to so he could cancel z out

    1:42. How do you know when you need to multiply by 2?

      When the variables do not have the correct number to cancel out prob

      Pretty sure im a bit late, but it is because you would need to have two equations with only two variables to make this work, and he had chosen Y to be taken out, and the top equations Y was 1/2 of the third equations Y so to make them the same value so they cancel out, you have to multiply the whole top equation by 2 so when you add the first and third equations, the Y cancels out

    x + y + z = 6
    x + -2y + 3z = 1
    x + 3y + -z = 8
    ANS: X,Y,Z (1,3,2) Is my answer correct?

    how do you know which number to multiply with

    • @manipulators
      @manipulators 2 года назад +3

      The number is your choice, kind of. The goal of using a constant is to be able to add two variables together and have one of them cancel each other out, for example:
      2y+3z=4
      4y+2z=3
      we want a 2y to become a number where it would cancel out 4y, therefore we multiply by a constant of -2 giving us:
      -4y-6z=-8
      + 4y+2z=3
      ------------------
      -4z=5
      hope this helped, if you have any more questions feel free to reply!
