You can put this solution on YOUR website!
it looks like the original equation is:
\n" ); document.write( "c = 1 / 4 * m * (q + k)
\n" ); document.write( "multiply both sides of the equation by 4 to get:
\n" ); document.write( "4 * c = m * (q + k)
\n" ); document.write( "divide both sides of the equation by m to get:
\n" ); document.write( "4 * c / m = q + k
\n" ); document.write( "subtract k from both sides of the equation to get:
\n" ); document.write( "4 * c / m - k = q
\n" ); document.write( "you have just solved for q.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "to confirm this was done correctly, i did the following:
\n" ); document.write( "to solve for c, i set m = 2, q = 5, k = 3 and solves for c to get:
\n" ); document.write( "c = 1/4 * 2 * (5 + 3)
\n" ); document.write( "this became c = 1/4 * 2 * 8 which became c = 2/4 * 8 which became c = 4.
\n" ); document.write( "to solve for q, i set c = 4, m = 2, k = 3 to get:
\n" ); document.write( "q = 4 * c / m - k which became q = 4 * 4 / 2 - 3 which became q = 16 / 2 - 3 which became q = 8 - 3 which became q = 5.
\n" ); document.write( "i originally solved for c, then used that value of c to solve for q.
\n" ); document.write( "this confirmed to me that the translation of the equation to solve for q was correct.\r
