Question

How to align the equals signs on equations of the form:
f(2) = 2*(2)^2 + 8
= 2*4 + 8
= 8 + 8
= 16

Answer 1

\[\]To achieve this you need to enclose your equations between \\([\)\\(\)begin{align} and \\(\)end{align}\\(]\). Each equal sign should be preceded with an '&' symbol, and each line should end with a double backslash (i.e. \\).
So the sample equation in the question would be written out as:

\\([\)\\(\)begin{align}
f(2) &= 2*(2)^2 + 8\\
&= 2*4 + 8\\
&= 8 + 8\\
&= 16
\\(\)end{align}\\(]\)

This will produce something like this:\[\begin{align}
f(2) &= 2*(2)^2 + 8\\
&= 2*4 + 8\\
&= 8 + 8\\
&= 16
\end{align}\]

Answer 2

\[\begin{array} f(2) &= 2*(2)^2 + 8\\ &= 2*4 + 8\\ &= 8 + 8\\ &= 16 \end{array}\]
just checking it works with "array" as well

Answer 3

how did they write it?

Answer 4

when asnaseer come back we should tackle him with the question

Answer 5

oh

Answer 6

this is it

Answer 7

\begin{array} f(2) &= 2*(2)^2 + 8\\ &= 2*4 + 8\\ &= 8 + 8\\ &= 16 \end{array}

Answer 8

??

Answer 9

you know you can copy that code

Answer 10

right click it

Answer 11

\[\begin{align}
f(2) &= 2*(2)^2 + 8\\
&= 2*4 + 8\\
&= 8 + 8\\
&= 16
\end{align}\]

Answer 12

yep

Answer 13

no but i want it in the equation editor

Answer 14

you can do it in the equation editor

Answer 15

\[\[\begin{align} f(2) &= 2*(2)^2 + 8\\ &= 2*4 + 8\\ &= 8 + 8\\ &= 16 \end{align}\]\]

Answer 16

\[\begin{array} new line \\ new line \\ new line \end{array}\]

Answer 17

i did that in equation editor

Answer 18

i did a new line
you have to do
\begin{array}
\\ newline\\
newline
\end{array}
