Algebra.Com's Answer #406725 by swincher4391(1107)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! s = n/(n+1) \n" ); document.write( "Multiply both sides by (n+1) \n" ); document.write( "(n+1)*s = n \n" ); document.write( "Solve for 0 \n" ); document.write( "(n+1)*s - n = 0 \n" ); document.write( "Distribute \n" ); document.write( "sn + s -n = 0 \n" ); document.write( "Get all \"n\" terms on one side, lone s terms on the other. \n" ); document.write( "sn -n = -s \n" ); document.write( "Factor out an n. \n" ); document.write( "n(s-1) = -s \n" ); document.write( "Solve for n. \n" ); document.write( "n = -s/(s-1) \n" ); document.write( " |
