Question 1038518: Could someone help me in solving this please. Thank you.
Muscle contraction. In a study of the speed of muscle contraction in frogs under various loads, noted British biophysicist and Nobel Prize winner A. W. Hill determined that the weight w (in grams) placed on the muscle and the speed of contraction v (in centimeters per second) are approximately related by an equation of the form (w+a)(v+b)=c, where a, b, and c are constants. Suppose that for a certain muscle, a = 15, b = 1, c = 90. Express v as a function of w. Find the speed of contraction if a weight of 16 grams is placed on the muscle.

The rest is just arithmetic.

My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
