make it true online with Winfy

We have hosted the application make it true in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about make it true:

Make It True is a web application to practice fundamental algebra procedures used when manipulating equations. The application generates arbitrary equations containing 1-4 variables. It is for the student to provide values for these variables which make the equation true.

For example, in the screenshot above the equation is: 18-64-c*d=4. The student must choose values for c and d which result in a true statement. One approach would be to solve for the product "c*d" and then choose 2 numbers whose product satisfies what's needed. Like this:

18-64-c*d=4
18-64-4=c*d
c*d=-50

Then the student could pick any two numbers with product of -50, like c=-25 and d=2.

Another approach would be to pick any number for c, then express d in terms of that number. For example, if the student arbitrarily chose c=13 then:
18-64-c*d=4
18-64-13*d=4
d=(4-18+64)/(-13).
