Algebraic modeling

This course contains 5 segments:

Rate conversion

Practice solving word problems that involve the conversion between different units for the same quantity. For example, a rate problem where some rates are in km/h and some are in m/s.

Appropriate units

Learn how to work with units that are arithmetic combinations of more simple units. For example, velocity units are quotients of distance units over time units, which corresponds to the formula v=d/t.

Word problems with multiple units
