The substitution as you see in this particular problem is very helpful, because the polynomial is not being presented as we normally see them with positive exponent and also because the two exponents are different. We can arrange the problem to make it look like a polynomial simply by applying variables. The solution is simply to treat the problem as a quadratic function and solving for the variable. In these situations the solution could be one or two, how do we check to see which one is the correct answer? Simply by replacing the variables by the found answers and this implies establishing a true statement.Humberto P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11702160548891831836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8061926846738065432.post-18655752199130528542012-11-26T09:11:11.292-08:002012-11-26T09:11:11.292-08:00What is the substitution method and why did you us...What is the substitution method and why did you use it to help solve this equation?Josh Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15477932309863097393noreply@blogger.com
