You can assign it to either the numerator or denominator, doesn't matter... \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "Let's say we assign it to the numerator: \n" ); document.write( "(-2)/3=(-10)/t \n" ); document.write( "cross-multipling we get: \n" ); document.write( "-2t = -30 \n" ); document.write( "dividing both sides by -2: \n" ); document.write( "t = 15 \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "OR, we could have assigned it to the denominator: \n" ); document.write( "2/(-3)=10/(-t) \n" ); document.write( "cross-multiplying: \n" ); document.write( "-2t = -30 \n" ); document.write( "t = 15 \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "OR, any combination...\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
