rearrange the logistic function p/1-p = x to give the result p = x/1+x
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( " $\"p%2F%28%281-p%29%29\"$ = x
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply both sides by (1-p)
\n" ); document.write( "(1-p)* $\"p%2F%28%281-p%29%29\"$ = (1-p)*x
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Results:
\n" ); document.write( "p = x(1-p)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Mulitiply what's inside the brackets
\n" ); document.write( "p = x - xp
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Add xp to both sides
\n" ); document.write( "p + xp = x
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Factor out p
\n" ); document.write( "p(1+x) = x
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Divide both sides by (1+x)
\n" ); document.write( "p = $\"x%2F%28%281%2Bx%29%29\"$
