I believe that X would be -2.47619.
First you distribute the -1 in front of the parenthesis. Then distribute the 8 outside of the bracts. And finally just solve for X by combing like terms.
Answer:
(c) micrograms (µg)
Step-by-step explanation:
X=8
Set up proportions would give you: 10/3x+1 = 22/7x-1
With that in mind, cross multiply, which would give you: 10(7x-1) = 22(3x+1).
Turns into: 70x -10 = 66x+22. Then just solve for x
Answer:
x=c/a-b/a
Step-by-step explanation:
ax+b=c
1) Subtract b from both sides:
ax=c-b
2) Divide both sides by a:
x=c/a-b/a
