You can put this solution on YOUR website!

given:

%28B%2B0.015%2At%29%2F0.022=N

if the BAC is+0.17 => in your formula is only B; so, B=0.17
and, if the time is 1.5 hours=>t=1.5

substitute both in given formula

%280.17%2B0.015%2A1.5%29%2F0.022=N

%280.17%2B0.0225%29%2F0.022=N

0.1925%2F0.022=N

8.75=N
