Question
My friend has a son that needs help with math. I tryed to help and found that the best way I can show him what to do is to give him a paper with all of the algebra 1 formulas on it. My teacher did it for me and it helped so much, But I don't know how to get a hold of some thing like that. Can you help? Thank you for your time.

Answer
I've been working algebra problems for 60 years and I don't know any specific formulas to list.  I'd be curious to know what your teacher gave you.  There are certain techniques for solving algebra problems but you have to consider each case.  I show students how to work any problem that they send me.
