-
Variables vs. Units
It explains that a variable represents a measurable quantity in a formula. For example, in the table:- Time is denoted as "t" with units like seconds (s) or hours (h).
- Distance is "d" in meters (m) or kilometers (km).
- Speed is "v" in meters per second (m/s) or kilometers per hour (km/h).

Manipulating Formulas
This section guides how to rearrange formulas to solve for different variables. For example:- The formula (area = length × width) can be rearranged to solve for length or width.
- a) To solve for , rearrange to .
- b) To solve for , rearrange to .
Similarly, for speed :
- a) To solve for distance , rearrange to .
- b) To solve for time , rearrange to .
- The formula (area = length × width) can be rearranged to solve for length or width.
