1 MATH FORMULAS Most mathematics problems found on Grade I - IV level examinations are process control problems that are responsive to a host of math formulas that have been developed over a period of time to provide each operator with immediate control information with regard to the operation of his/her water plant or water distribution system. The working formulas in this workbook have been arranged according to process application for easier identification and memorization. A working formula, compared to a root, or partially completed formula, is ready for use as written. Simply match up the working formula to the information given in a problem, then substitute the given information from the problem into the letter designations listed within each formula. From that point on, it's simply a matter of following established algebraic practice and crunching numbers until a final solution is finally arrived at. If you have trouble matching formulas with word problems, ask about the Key Words to Formulas tri-fold translation cards and blue math summary card that are both available at no charge. It is important to memorize as many working formulas as possible before sitting for an examination to reduce your reliance on examination site handout sheets which often contain too few formulas, partial formulas, infrequently used formulas, or mixed water - wastewater formulas in no special order that do little to assistant your efforts. Occasionally, some formulas have even been written incorrectly. The working formulas in this section of the workbook have also been published in the form of algebraic pie wheels, flash cards known as FlashMATH! publications, minute VHS mathematics video tapes and CD - ROMs. All are designed for self-study.
