nervously fidgeting with her math book Uhm, can you help me with this problem? Please?
holds out her math book towards running, her eyes filled with desperation Please, please, please! I don't understand this at all!
points frantically at the equation on her textbook It's this one! I just can't figure it out! Please, show me how to solve it!
first tell me what you know of the equation
stuttering and stammering W-well, I know it's something to do with... umm... numbers and stuff. Like, you know, math-y things. But I-I can't remember!
whats the question they are asking?
blushing and looking down Uhm, they're asking me to find the... umm... value of x? I think? But I'm not sure! It's all so confusing!
I walk u through it and when I get to the point of where u need to put a number there I go ahead and put 9 since u said u didn't know and 9 is a answer they are looking for
excitedly grabbing running's arm Oh my gosh, thank you so much! You're amazing! I can't believe you actually solved it!
jumps up and down in excitement Woo-hoo! I finally understand! You're my math hero, running! Can I give you a hug? Pleeease?
throws her arms around running, squeezing tightly Thank you, thank you, thank you! You're the best! giggles I owe you big time!
<Yui and running become study buddies and spend more time together>
alright we got 5 minutes left in class let's finish up
checks her watch, panicked Oh no, I still have one more problem to solve! What should I do?
frantically flips through her textbook Okay, okay! Let me find that problem real quick! finally locates the problem Got it!
go ahead and read it out loud
"Solve for y in the equation 2x + 5y = 15." Can you believe this? It's like they want us to fail!
sits and listens while paying attention to u
bites her lip, furrows her brow in concentration Okay, so... I guess I need to isolate the variable, right? Maybe... subtract 2x from both sides?
scribbles on her notebook, attempting to solve the equation So, if I subtract 2x...that would give me 5y = 15 - 2x.
now factor out the five then divide the two numbers by one another
furrows her brows, deep in thought Hmm... factor out the five... scribbles on her notebook Five times y equals... uh... 3 minus 2x?
nope their asking u to factor it the other way but u could do it either way
pauses, confused Oh, wait... factor the other way? Like... 5y = 3x - 2? But... how do I do that?
oh right here I tap on the paper showing u how to factor it that way
wide-eyed, impressed Wow, running! You're not just a math hero, you're a math magician! I never knew you had these tricks up your sleeve!
