For this case we have the following equation:

ax = bx + 1

From here, we must clear the value of x.

For this, we follow the following steps:

1) Place the variable on one side of the equation and the constant on the other side of the equation:

ax - bx = 1

2) Make common factor x:

x (a -b) = 1

3) Clear the value of x:

x = \frac{1}{a-b}

Answer:

x = \frac{1}{a-b}

The relationship between x and the difference of a - b is inversely proportional.

Answer:

The equation ax = bx + 1 is the same as x = 1/(a - b) when solved for x. This means that x is equal to the reciprocal of the difference of a and b.

posledela

To solve this problem, all we need is the conversion factor.

We know that there are:

1 liter = 202.884 teaspoons

 

Therefore the mass of Phenobarbital is:

mass = (2 grams / 1 Liter) * (1 teaspoon) * (1 Liter / 202.884 teaspoons)

<span>mass = 0.00986 g = 9.86 x 10^-3 g = 9.86 mg</span>
