C.2.3—Substitution into equations

Substitute numerical values into algebraic equations using appropriate units for physical quantities.

Use c.2.3—substitution into equations to connect the rule to the data and decision in the question.

This matters because c.2.3—substitution into equations determines what can be inferred or chosen; begin with the stated conditions and keep the conclusion tied to the evidence.

Example: apply c.2.3—substitution into equations to one small, clearly defined case, show the key step or comparison, and explain the result in words.

Boundary: use the formula and units given in the question, show the substitution and interpret the result; the calculation alone is not the conclusion.
