Solving Equations and the Inverse of Mathematical Operations.

Eberhart, James G.

School Science and Mathematics, v94 n3 p124-26 Mar 1994

Presents alternative equation-solving procedures that emphasize an examination of the steps or operations necessary to perform a calculation, followed by the inversion of those steps. The approach is especially attractive to students with limited mathematical skills. (Author/MKR)
