You can replace a variable with an equal value or expression. Just make sure the same variable always gets the same value or expression.

No, you can only simplify an expression. To solve for a variable, it must be in an equation.


What is -8t - 11x?

It is a linear expression in two variables. As an expression it cannot be solved. Furthermore, to solve equations in two variables you need at least two linear equations.


Is an independent variable defined to be a variable that is to be predicted or estimated?

neither, an independent variable is a variable not being changed in the process of a science experiment. A variable in math cannot be described, only purpose of a variable is to take place of a number that you are trying to figure out in some equations. Others are equations with no solution.

How do you work a simultaneous equation?

You cannot work a simultaneous equation. You require a system of equations. How you solve them depends on their nature: two or more linear equations are relatively easy to solve by eliminating variables - one at a time and then substituting these values in the earlier equations. For systems of equations containing non-linear equations it is simpler to substitute for variable expression for one of the variables at the start and working towards the other variable(s).


Explain why you cannot find a numerical value for the expression 4x - 5y for x equals 3?

You cannot because the expression still contains the unknown variable y.
