False position method concerned with the questions of whether or not an approximation to a solution can be obtained, and if it can, how fast can the approximation be found. Two basic types of false position method can be distinguished historically, "simple false position" and "double false position". "Simple false position" is aimed at solving problems involving direct proportion. Such problems can be written algebraically in the form: determine such that if and are known. The method begins by using a test input value , and finding the corresponding output value by multiplication: . The correct answer is then found by proportional adjustment,
Midfielder look to provide deliveries into the box for teammates. On occasion, the false-10 can also function in a different manner alongside a false-9, usually in a 4–6–0 formation, disguised as either a 4–3–3 or 4–2–3–1 formation. When other forwards or false-9s drop deep and draw defenders away from the false-10s, creating space in the middle of the pitch, the false-10 will then also surprise defenders by exploiting this space and moving out of position once again, often undertaking offensive dribbling runs forward towards goal, or running on to passes from false-9s, which in turn enables them to create goalscoring opportunities
