00:00 Hello, I'm Sonday Oyase, I'm your mathematics teacher, but today, and now we're taking
00:20 an important topic, which is change of the subject of formula, especially substitution.
00:26 So let's go change of subject of formula, okay?
00:48 So I'm talking about change of the formula at the end of this topic, what are you expected
01:03 to know?
01:04 As expected to know how to change the subject of the formula, how to identify a particular
01:09 formula and what to do with it.
01:13 So we'll move straight.
01:14 The first question I would like to ask is, what is change of the subject of formula?
01:20 Every equation is expressed in a variable.
01:24 So it's a variable which is expressed in terms of all that variable in a formula.
01:30 So that means a variable stands alone, whether on the right hand side or on the left hand
01:35 side, and it's an expression of every other variable.
01:40 So if every other tenel goes on the right hand side or the left hand side, but one variable
01:46 stands alone.
01:47 So it stands alone as a variable.
01:49 So the variable that stands alone is called the subject of the entire formula.
01:54 Now let's go ahead, I give an example, let me have a variable where I have V equal to
02:02 U plus U plus A, C. Now I have a combination of many variables here, so I have V, U, A, and
02:20 C.
02:21 Now these variables are involved.
02:22 But one is an expression of every other variable, that's the V.
02:27 So the V, A, is the subject of this entire formula, so the V stands alone.
02:36 So even if the V is at the right hand side or the left hand side, it becomes the subject
02:41 of this entire formula, that.
02:44 The problem comes is when I'm trying to change this V to U, A, or T, that process of
02:54 changing is called the change of the subject of formula.
02:59 First, the subject of the formula, then a change.
03:03 Now if I'm trying to change, that means I am substituting it for any other variable.
03:09 That's when substitution comes.
03:10 So substitution comes when you are trying to change a particular subject from any other
03:16 one that you have before, to anyone.
03:18 So substitution comes like that.
03:20 So we substitute the value of U, A, and T, as you may have it, to any of the subjects.
03:27 So once I'm doing that, it's a change of the sort of formula.
03:31 Now, let's go.
03:32 Now, changing of the sort of formula is a change of the subject that begins with the variable
03:36 to become a new subject and apply the inverse operation for the solving of the equation
03:42 in the opposite order for the convention.
03:45 But I'm just saying that you're changing any of these to replace this, that's change of
03:51 the subject.
03:52 Now the question lies is, how do I go about it?
03:55 Let's pick, for example, I want to make, this is the V already at the subject of the formula
04:01 to really identify from what is given.
04:03 So I can be given any other equation, but take a note of what's whereby it is given
04:09 at the subject.
04:10 So changing it would not be difficult, but if you don't identify the previous subject,
04:15 into a new subject can be so difficult.
04:18 So let's go.
04:19 We have V.
04:20 Now, I want to now make what, U, the subject of this entire formula, what do I need to do?
04:27 I have multiple variables running.
04:29 I have V, I have A, I have T. Now, to change the dynamics behind it, I look for the proximity
04:37 developed at this closer to U, then the one far away.
04:42 So I have A and T, closer, I have V, V, I have to stick across the equation sign.
04:47 So that's a bit longer, but I have the ones that are closer, I have A and I have T.
04:53 So making U, yeah, the subject of the formula, what do I need to do?
04:58 I have to figure out four eliminates A and T, and how do I do that?
05:03 To eliminate A and T, A and T have a coefficient that they go with.
05:07 The coefficient is an additional sign, this is the coefficient, this, the plus becomes
05:16 very important.
05:17 Because if I don't take note of this, it's a set whatsoever a position I do.
05:21 So what do I need to do?
05:22 Take note of this plus, that the sign of equality.
05:26 Now, when I take note of this plus, let me now continue.
05:29 So I will now have a variable where I have V equal to U, I have Z equal to U plus A and
05:46 T. Now, subtract minus A, T, the inverse of plus A, T, so if I want to do that, what do
05:58 I do?
05:59 Now, subtract, I want to subtract it, I need to subtract this, apply it to the both side
06:05 of the equation on the left hand side and on the right hand side.
06:09 How do I make that possible?
06:10 Now, that means that the inverse of a plus becomes a minus, the inverse of a minus becomes
06:17 plus, the variable stands alone, but I take note of the coefficient.
06:22 So what do I have?
06:23 And I have applied to both side, I'm going to be having V inverse of it minus, what's
06:31 the variable I'm eliminating, A and T. So I'm eliminating A and T of the grid.
06:39 So I'm having A, T equal to U plus A, T minus A, T.
06:50 Put the inverse, subtract it from both sides, you take the inverse and subtract from both sides.
06:54 So I'm taking the inverse of the addition sign, it gives me minus, so I'm minus, but variable,
07:02 so I could have, yeah, taking off this out of the equation.
07:08 Oh, I would have plus, A, T minus A, T. So, and taking it out, this takes out this.
07:25 I'm left with the U. So practically, the U becomes a new subject.
07:30 So I want to have it as V minus A, T equal to U. U, right hand side on the left hand side
07:42 becomes the subject.
07:44 Now the previous subject is V, the new subject is U. The process in between is what you do
07:53 to get your view.
07:55 So a member could have, what I said on this side, so I would have U equal to V minus A, T,
08:04 categorically.
08:05 So I have a new subject in place.
08:08 Now moving to the next one, let's have another example.
08:14 So it's okay.
08:15 Let's have another example where we could use T using the same form of equation, the same
08:19 equation with being given. Let's have example 2.
08:24 Stay given the same form of equation, you can say we call we have V equal to U plus A, T.
08:36 Now the one we got is making U the subject of the formula.
08:41 Now we are expected to make C the subject of the formula.
08:45 This becomes a bit more difficult than the previous one.
08:49 The previous one is, you just have to eliminate one.
08:52 But yeah, you have multiple variables to deal with.
08:54 So you look for the closet of them, what's the closet?
08:57 The closet to T, it's A. First, the nest is U. You don't start.
09:05 You look at that the closet.
09:06 Now the A is the closet, then the U followed by the U. But while doing this, take note.
09:12 Start from the one at the simpler, 12 minutes.
09:14 So I have a U here.
09:16 So I can take off this U out of this equation because U here is plus U. The sign, there's
09:22 always a sign in front, so I can take off the U. So what do I have to do, subtract U from
09:27 both sides.
09:28 So I just subtract U from both sides.
09:29 Now let's go.
09:30 So I can simply say a solution to that, for example, take subtract U from both sides.
09:36 Now when you are subtracting U, you are not only subtracting the U, you are subtracting
09:41 what do we call, the sign, inverse of the sign.
09:44 This is plus U.
09:45 So we are subtracting U from both sides.
09:47 So I'll be able to know what minus U. So I will have V minus U equal to plus U plus A T minus
10:00 U. Now if you take note of this very well, if you following carefully, you'll see why
10:09 am I bringing this minus U. So it could eliminate this effectively.
10:14 Take off this U plus and minus.
10:17 So what do I have left, my total equation, my total equation gives me V minus U equal
10:24 to A T.
10:28 Now when I have it this way, it's much more easier now to identify that from this equation,
10:37 this one that I have now, I'm still looking for T, but I have A and T. So A and T is not
10:46 a subject.
10:47 T is what I want to be the subject.
10:49 So what do I do?
10:50 I divide both sides by anything in front of T. What's in front of T, A?
10:57 So divide both sides. So simply say I divide both sides and divide both sides by A or divide
11:09 both sides by A. So when I take out divide both sides by A, what am I left with?
11:19 So what I have, V minus U over A equal to A T divided by A, taking the addition.
11:34 So this goes this. So what do I have left in my system of equation?
11:41 And I have V, I have a V minus U over A equal to T, beautiful.
11:55 You know, this beautiful.
11:57 Now T is the new subject. What do I mean?
12:01 I have V, I now meet T the subject. So when I turn the right side, like I said, on the left
12:07 side, in the other side it is. This is not a new subject. Taking everybody in supportive
12:14 position. So if you, what are you moving to the other side too, I could not, you cannot
12:19 have it as T equal to V minus U over A, good. Now if you look at it, this and this are
12:32 the same. It's all. So I have option.
12:36 So if I have a particular option and I'm giving like this, I'm giving this form, they are
12:40 the same. It's on the right hand side, on the left hand side, it is still the subject
12:44 of the formula because it stands alone. So we'll move to another example, a bit tough
12:52 one. Now we have example three. This one is made quite the subject of the formula from
12:57 the equation. So the question is, yeah, we have multiple variables. I have X, Y, Z. Now,
13:04 what do I need to do? Like I said, take the one closer. Then I have example three. The
13:12 equation, example three. I have X equal to open bracket Y plus Z, Y plus Z. Then I have,
13:29 I have Y minus Z. Now, whichever I have, yeah, take note of it. But here I have RBA, it's
13:39 a subject to this one here. This X here becomes the whole thing that this thing's been expressed
13:47 with. So you cannot mention this without mention this first. So when you are mentioning,
13:52 you say, okay, X equal to, you can't say Y plus Z. It has to start with X. So that means
13:57 X becomes the subject in this entire one. Now we are saying, change it and make what?
14:02 Now make what? Why? To become the solution formula. What do you do? First of all, you take
14:08 a pause. I have Y here. I have another Y down here. I have two. What do I need to do? So, if
14:15 I were you, the first thing to do is this. I will just simply say a solution. Now, what
14:22 do I put in place? O, I'm a challenge. I have X. So what do I need to do? I have X over
14:29 1, express it in a fraction, equal to Y plus Z over Y minus Z. Now, why am I making this?
14:43 I want both to be on the same side. The numerator, the denominator, I want to create both sides.
14:49 So what do I need to do? I put it this way. Now, I have two ways to grab out it. I could
14:55 add up this over 1, then multiply both sides by this, this, this, this, it's on two positions.
15:02 So I have two positions. I could add up multiply both sides by this or take out this. It's optional
15:07 for me to do. But this, I pay this with one. So I will just want multiply both sides by
15:12 what? Why am I not so? Let's go. So what do I need to do next? Next, I will cross multiply
15:19 or multiply both sides. We may have it. I will have X. I will have X. Open bracket Z minus
15:28 Y minus Z equal to Y plus Z. Cut to go again. Y plus Z. So this way. Now, with this, what
15:43 am I done? I just cross multiply or multiply both sides by minus Z minus Y. I have two options.
15:50 So it will be two options. Still, it comes back to this. So giving you a two option line.
15:55 Oh, that is, what? So I have, when I do this, I have this. Now, I need to open the bracket
16:00 because this is multiplying this. So X multiplies everything in the bracket. So what do we have?
16:05 X opens the bracket. What do we have? X times Y becomes what? Becomes X Y minus X times
16:14 Z becomes X X Z X and Z. And I have on this side, Y plus Z. So the question now, let's
16:31 see. What do I do next? I have Y. I have another Y here. I have two Ys. What do I need to do?
16:37 I need to collect light ends. The terms of Y here, I have another Y here. Bring them together
16:44 to become one family. Why? Every other one that does not belong to the family, cross
16:50 over to the other side. So what do I need to do? So categorically, collect light ends.
16:56 So simply say, collect light ends. Collect light ends. Now, collect my light ends. If I'm
17:06 collecting my light ends, what do I need to do in this point? I collect the ones that have
17:12 similar light ends, the ones that are similar in nature. So I have X Y. And I have, yeah,
17:21 I have plus Y. It causes the sign of equality or it takes two sign plus Y. I want to eliminate
17:30 the Y here so it could be on this side. So what do I do? I collect my light ends and how
17:36 do I collect my light ends? I could send these to cause the sign of equality. Or in the
17:42 other way, I could multiply. I could just simply say, why can't I divide both sides by
17:46 minus Y? So I have two options. So what do I do? I have X plus Y. Take this. I have this
17:54 cross. It becomes what? Minus Y equal to Z. This cross becomes plus X plus XZ. XZ. Now I have
18:08 X and Z. Categorically. What have I done? What have I done? I've been able to take out the
18:17 ones I know and group them into the category that belong. Good. Now, looking at this. Looking
18:27 for me. For me, I collect my light ends. And when I collect my light ends, I have X Y minus
18:35 Y equal to Z plus XZ. Now, if we look at it carefully, between the two sides, what's
18:44 common? And between the A, what's common? So between these two sides, you observe, I have
18:51 Y to be common. Between the A, too, I have Z to be common. So the Z on one side, the Y on
18:58 the other side. So between the A, I have what's common? Y. So I take out the Y. Now, taking
19:03 out the Y, I will have Y, open bracket X minus Y into Y. That's one. Close the bracket
19:15 equal to Z is common. Take it out. I take out the Z, open bracket, what? One plus plus
19:30 X. Close the bracket. So, what do I do here? What have I just done? I have collected the light
19:39 ends of both sides. Now, it returns back. I have Y. After a little minutes, what's the
19:46 base in front of Y? I want the front of Y, I have X minus 1. So with X minus 1, divide
19:51 both sides. Divide both sides by X minus 1. Now, it divide both sides by X minus 1. So,
19:59 I will just simply say divide both sides by X minus 1. Now, divide both sides by X minus
20:14 1. Now, when I divide both sides by X minus 1, what do I have left? So let's take out the
20:19 equation together. I have Y, open bracket X minus 1, all divided by X minus 1 equal to Z,
20:31 open bracket X, 1 plus X, over, we have X minus 1. Now, if you are following the system
20:47 pattern of the equation, you would definitely observe that I am having X on both sides.
20:55 Now, I am not bothered with the X because X is not what my subject wants to be. My subject
21:01 remains. I am looking for a pattern to make Y. So, I simply take this in this. So, when
21:07 I take out this too, what do I have left? I have Y, Y equal to Z, open bracket 1 plus X,
21:23 over X, I have 1 plus X over X minus 1. Now, as I said, this process is a bit more complex
21:44 than the first, the second and the third. So, if you look at it very well, I now have Y
21:50 here equal to all the system of equation. Previously, in the system, I have X, but now I have
21:59 been able to change the X to Y. The process in between is the process I have undertaken
22:06 to change the X to Y. Now, I take the last one more question is make Q, the sum of the formula.
22:15 So, I have four questions, a bit more, make Q. Now, this one becomes make Q, that is example
22:25 4, that is example 4. Now, make Q, what my system of equation? I have X equal to A, Q,
22:37 square. Now, I am introducing square, someone said, oh, but those ones we are not square
22:43 yes, you could have a system of equation, you could have square, you could have square root,
22:49 you could have Q, you could have Q, so you get your mind prepared for it. Oh, from simple,
22:56 simple. So, this X here is the subject, the one that was given, I am changing this X to
23:03 Y to Q, all my first steps, solution. Now, I take say, a solution to the question, solution
23:13 and how, what do I eliminate first? What do I eliminate first? Is that the square or the
23:22 A? Because those two things I want into my head, what do I eliminate first? The first
23:26 eliminate is A. You say, why? If I take out the square, the square will have fed the A,
23:34 the square will have fed both sides. I can decide, I can take out, let me take out the
23:37 A first. So, I only have the Q and the two to deal with. Closer, you won't prove, let
23:45 me take a said. So, divide both sides by A. So, I am dividing both sides by A, a divide
23:55 both sides by A. So, I divide both sides by A. So, I divide both sides by A, I will have
24:07 X over A equal to A Q square over A. So, conveniently, means, conveniently, I could
24:22 just take out my E. A out of the equation, wherever A is, A is on the side. But yeah, I am
24:32 trying to get my Q. So, I will just have, I will have, I have X over A equal to Q square.
24:44 Now, with the Q square, with the Q square, Q square is subject, but what the subject should
24:51 be is Q. So, what the next thing to do? I have square. To take away square, you square root.
24:59 To take away square root, you square. Opposite. To take away square, you square root. To take
25:05 away square root, you square. So, to take away this square, I square root both sides. So,
25:11 how do I, let me go on with the system of equation? I want to square root, square root
25:16 both sides. It has to apply to both sides. Square root both sides. So, I have square root
25:20 both sides. So, when I want to square root both sides, both sides. Now, less square
25:28 both sides. So, when I square root both sides, I am going to be having square root X over
25:34 A equal to Q square square root. It has to apply to both sides. So, that this one takes
25:44 out this effectively. And so, what do I have left? I am now going to be having what? I am
25:51 now going to be having a square root X over A equal to Q. Now, Q is now the subject of
26:03 the formula. Now, with this, we start from A down to the next one to the next to the next
26:11 and now this. So, you could also pick it to this side and take it to this side. In another
26:15 side, you decide to put it. There is no problem. So, we can move now. You have to do something
26:22 for me. So, you pick up your pen and your paper and solve the system of equation for me.
26:30 So, I have met P, the subject of the formula. I have X P equal to 4C minus Y. Ask question
26:39 1, question 2, make out the subject of the formula. Your final answer from the example 4, we
26:48 have Q equal to the root X over A. That is your final answer. So, you are going to be taking
26:58 some evaluation on. So, you are going to be doing some work. You are going to make P, the
27:03 subject of the formula for the first system of equation. You are going to make out and say
27:08 the formula for the second system of equation. So, you have two evaluation to work on and
27:14 that was 20 new intelligence. Thank you very much. You have come to the end of the class.
27:18 I still remain, or yes, someday. Thank you very much. See you in the next class.
