FIVE STEP PROBLEM SOLVING/CORRECTIVE ACTION PROCESS When an audit or component failure reveals opportunities for improvement‚ the following five steps are an excellent way to plan‚ develop‚ an implement a corrective action plan to contain and prevent the reoccurrence of the failure mode. 1. DEFINE THE DEFECT OR NONCONFORMANCE (PROBLEM DESCRIPTION) A problem well defined is a problem half solved‚ it is critical to not include any implied causes or solutions in the problem statement in order

Rational Equations Rational equations can be used to get a general idea about the rate at which a job can be completed. This can be really useful for business owners and other areas of daily life. Here is an example: Scenario: Sue can paint the garage in 4 hours and Joe has carpal tunnel so he is slower and can paint the same garage in 6 hours. How long (number of hours) will it take Sue and Joe to paint the garage if they work together? Solution: Sue can paint of the garage in 1 hour. Joe

While the ultimate goal is the same‚ to determine the value(s) that hold true for the equation‚ solving quadratic equations requires much more than simply isolating the variable‚ as is required in solving linear equations. This piece will outline the different types of quadratic equations‚ strategies for solving each type‚ as well as other methods of solutions such as Completing the Square and using the Quadratic Formula. Knowledge of factoring perfect square trinomials and simplifying radical expression

Solving Exponential and Logarithmic Equations Exponential Equations (variable in exponent position) 1. Isolate the exponential portion ( base exp onent ): Move all non-exponential factors or terms to the other side of the equation. 2. Take ln or log of each side of the equation. • Make sure to use ln if the base is “e”. Then remember that ln e = 1 . • Make sure to use log if the base is 10. • If the base is neither “e” nor “10”‚ use either ln or log‚ your choice.. 3. Bring the power (exponent)

To solve a system of equations by addition or subtraction (or elimination)‚ you must eliminate one of the variables so that you could solve for one of the variables. First‚ in this equation‚ you must look for a way to eliminate a variable (line the equations up vertically and look to see if there are any numbers that are equal to each other). If there is lets say a –2y on the top equation and a –2y on the bottom equation you could subtract them and they would eliminate themselves by equaling zero
