This video goes through some more examples of word problems / riddles in Algebra using two variables and two equations to solve the problems. You will learn how to set up equations from the problem and solve the resulting system of equations using substitution or elimination and then check your answer. This is a very good tutorial on word problems in Algebra.
Language puzzles and riddles really helped take some of the fear and befuddlement out of listening to what is for me a really great video learning experience! Thanks. BTW: Math education has improved 500% since I was a kid.
straight forward concise ...thanks
