【#雅思# 导语】不做说话的巨人,行动的矮子。说再多的漂亮话,也不如做一件实实在在的漂亮事,行动永远是迈向成功的第一步,想永远只会在原地踏步。对于考试而言亦是如此,每天进步一点点,基础扎实一点点,通过考试就会更容易一点点。®文档大全网整理了“GRE数学重要知识点:Substitution”,欢迎阅读参考!更多相关讯息请关注®文档大全网!
Substitution is a method where one or more variables in an expression is replaced by numbers or another set of variables.To evaluate an expression specific numbers are used as substitute. To express in terms of another set of variables, variables are replaced by the new set of variables.
Example:
If x=3, then 2x2+4x+1 can be evaluated by substituting 3 for x.
Replacing all x by 3, we get 2*32+4*3+1=31.
If x=2+y, then x2-3 can be expressed in terms of y by replacing all x by (2+y):(2+y)2-3=y2+4y+1.
Remember:
Do not forget to replace all occurrences of the variable.
After substitution the variable does not appear anywhere in the
expression.
