Hope I have the right section here, I have multiple variables... The equation I'm needing help with is:
\n" ); document.write( ".75 = a/(a + v)
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for v \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "First, lets multiply each side by (a+v). That will get rid of the fraction\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "0.75(a+v)=a(a+v)/(a+v) and this equals
\n" ); document.write( "0.75(a+v)=a now get rid of the parens (distributive law)
\n" ); document.write( "0.75a+0.75v=a subtract 0.75a from each side\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "0.75a-0.75a+0.75v=a-0.75a collect like terms\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "0.75v=0.25a divide each side by 0.75
\n" ); document.write( "v=0.25a/0.75 and this equals(1/3)a\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "therefore
\n" ); document.write( "v=(1/3)a\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "CK
\n" ); document.write( "0.75= a/(a+(1/3)a)
\n" ); document.write( "0.75=a/(4/3)a
\n" ); document.write( "0.75=1/(4/3) multiply the numerator and denominator of the right side by 3/4
\n" ); document.write( "0.75=(3/4)/1 or 3/4
\n" ); document.write( "0.75=0.75\r
\n" ); document.write( "
