Question

Investments: One day in November 2010, the value of one share of Xerox stock was $43.25 less than the value of a share of Target stock.

Answer 1

`X=T-43.25`

1) We can translate that into an algebraic expression if we call the value of the Xerox Stock: X.

2) So to find out the value of a Target Stock (T) we can write it out:

`X=T-43.25`

Note that we can plug into "T" the value of the Target share to find out X (Xerox share).

3) Hence, the answer is:

`X=T-43.25`
