How to solve a literal equation for a formula V= π/3 r^2 h

The video tutorial explains how to solve equations by isolating variables, focusing on operations affecting the variable. It demonstrates undoing multiplication through division and using reciprocals to simplify equations. The tutorial concludes with solving for the variable and providing the final answer.

What is the first step suggested by the teacher to focus on the variable in an equation?

• Underline the variable

• Circle the variable

• Draw a box around the variable

• Highlight the variable

What operation is used to undo multiplication by R-squared?

• Multiplication

• Division

• Subtraction

• Addition

Why does the teacher prefer multiplying by the reciprocal instead of dividing fractions?

• It is faster

• It is more accurate

• It avoids dealing with fractions

• It is a standard method

What is the final expression for H in terms of V, R, and π?

• H = V / (3πR^2)

• H = 3V / (πR^2)

• H = πV / (3R^2)

• H = 3πV / R^2
