Answer: x = \frac{c}{a + b}

Step-by-step explanation: Notice that the variable we're solving for in this problem appears in two separate terms. In this situation, we must first factor the <em>x</em> out of both terms to get x(a + b) = c.

Think about it as the reverse of the distributive property. In other words, if we take our second step and distribute the <em>x</em> through the parentheses, we end up back at our first step.

The beauty of factoring is that the two <em>x's</em> in this problem have now been combined into one <em>x</em> and we can get <em>x</em> by itself by simply dividing both sides by <em>a + b</em> and we have x = \frac{c}{a + b}.

In the image provided, I have highlighted the <em>x</em> in purple so we know what we're solving for and I have shown you the steps as well.

-3/v=-6 simply as much as possible
Aleksandr [31]
Hey!


In order to simplify this equation, we'll first have to multiply both sides of the equation by v. This will give us v on its own.

<em>Original Equation :</em>
\frac{-3}{v} = -6

<em>New Equation {Added Multiply Both Sides by V} :</em>
\frac{-3}{v} v=-6v

<em>Solution {New Equation Solved} :</em>
-3 = -6v

Now we'll switch sides to get v on the left side of the equation which is generally where we always want the variables to be located in these types of equations.

<em>Old Equation :</em>
-3 = -6v

<em>New Equation {Switched} :</em>
-6v=-3

Now we'll divide both sides by v to get v on its own.

<em>Old Equation :</em>
-6v = -3

<em>New Equation {Added Divide Both Sides by V} :</em>
\frac{-6v}{v} = \frac{-3}{v}

<em>Solution {New Equation Solved} :</em>
v =  \frac{1}{2}

<em>So, this means that in the equation \frac{-3}{v} =-6,</em>  v =  \frac{1}{2}.

Hope this helps!
