Re: Equation or Formula



I always tell my students that formula is someting
they stopped using many years ago. This is b/c
"formula" to me implies "recipe"; I want them to think
about mathematical relationships between variables
that are expressed in equation form. John Barrere

Is this an equation of Formula?
I get the most interesting discussions in class.
It probably doesn't matter, but is there a
difference?
