Question 99618: The following question is actually related to Chemical Equilibrium, but in order to solve that I just need help with this little piece of algebra. So, if you don't mind...
24= (x)/(.850-x)
I see in my book that the solution is x=0.861. I just need to know how they get it. The book skips that step!
Thank You. Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 24= (x)/(.850-x)
Multiply both sides by (0.85-x) to get:
24(0.85-x) = x
20.4 - 24x = x
25x = 20.4
x = 0.816
