Make x the subject: a(x-b) = x

Mathematics
1 answer:
umka21 [38]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

a(x - b) = x ← distribute parenthesis on left side

ax - ab = x ( subtract x from both sides )

ax - x - ab = 0 ( add ab to both sides )

ax - x = ab ← factor out x from each term on the left side

x(a - 1) = ab ← divide both sides by a - 1

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

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

24 = 8 1/3 % of x

24 = (25/3 * 1/100)x

25/300 x = 24

x = 24 * 300/25

x = 7200/25

x = 288

the sum of two consecutive even integers is greater than or equal to 34 what are the smallest possible integers?
DedPeter [7]

n, n + 2 - two consecutive even integers

the sum of two consecutive even integers is greater than or equal to 34

n + (n + 2) ≥ 34

n + n + 2 ≥ 34

2n + 2 ≥ 34       <em>subtract 2 from both sides</em>

2n ≥ 32      <em>divide both sides by 2</em>

n ≥ 16

<h3>Answer: The smallest possible integers is equal 16.</h3>
