Task goals
- Substitute given numeric values into a simple one- or two-step formula (e.g. perimeter, speed, cost) and evaluate it correctly.
- Rearrange a formula with one occurrence of the target variable to make it the subject, then substitute to solve for an unknown.
- Rearrange formulae where the target variable appears under a root, in a denominator, or on both sides, and apply the result to a multi-step real-world problem.
