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.

Let the equation C = 2.32 N + 34,180 represent the cost of raising a child, C, on an income, N.

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

C = 2.32 N + 34,180

C = 2.32 × 60000 + 34,180

C = 139200 + 34180

C = $173,380

Please help !! Use Pythagorean theorem :) and show your work if you can thanks :”) will give b

Answer:

$b=\sqrt{1575}$ ≈ 39.7ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem:

$a^{2}+ b^{2}= c^{2}$

(a and b are the two shorter legs and c is the largest leg, which is also the opposite side of the right angle)

First, the value of a and c is given. So, we can go ahead and plug those value in and then solve for b.

$45^{2}+ b^{2}= 60^{2}$

$2025+b^{2} =3600$

To find b, we have to get it by itself. So we subtract 2025 from both sides then square root both sides. Resulting in:

$b^{2} =1575$

$b=\sqrt{1575}$ ≈ 39.7ft
