The document discusses how to help students better solve math problems by adapting formulas and functions to different questions. It provides examples of taking a basic formula like 1+1=2 and applying it to solve 11+11=22. The document also explains how to solve for x in a quadratic equation by relating it back to the process for solving linear equations of moving x terms to the left and other terms to the right before dividing both sides by the coefficient of x.
