  • Explain what the variables in the formula represent and show all steps in the computations.
  • Incorporate the following five math vocabulary words into your discussion. Use bold font to emphasize the words in your writing (Do not write definitions for the words; use them appropriately in sentences describing your math work.): 
    • Literal equation
    • Formula
    • Solve
    • Substitute
    • Conditional equation

Your initial post should be 150-250 words in length. Respond to at least two of your classmates’ posts by Day 7. Do you agree with how your classmates used the vocabulary? Do the mathematical results seem reasonable? 

Carefully review the Grading Rubric for the criteria that will be used to evaluate your discussion.
