You can put this solution on YOUR website!
i believe you are saying sqrt(3) * x - x = 1
\n" ); document.write( "if so, then factor out the x to get (sqrt(3) - 1) * x = 1
\n" ); document.write( "divide both sides of the equation by (sqrt(3) - 1) to get x = (1/sqrt(3)-1))
\n" ); document.write( "that's your solution.
\n" ); document.write( "you can confirm by replacing x with 1 / (sqrt(3) - 1) in your original equation and showing that it is true.
\n" ); document.write( "you will get:
\n" ); document.write( "you can also confirm using your calculator.
\n" ); document.write( "take 1/(sqrt(3)-1) and get its value using the calculator.
\n" ); document.write( "the value will be 1.366025404
\n" ); document.write( "store that in your calculator memory and use it to evaluate the original equation.
\n" ); document.write( "i stored it into a variable called A in my calculator
\n" ); document.write( "that means that every time i use A, i am using 1.366025404.
\n" ); document.write( "the original equation is sqrt(3) * x - x = 1
\n" ); document.write( "using my calculator, i evaluated sqrt(3) * A - A = 1
\n" ); document.write( "the answer i got was 1 = 1, confirming the value of x = 1/(sqrt(3)-1) = 1.366025404 is good.
\n" ); document.write( "your solution is that x = 1/(sqrt(3)-1))\r
