Question

Solve the equation for x(-10x+14)/b =f

Answer 1

You have the following equation:

`(-10x+14)/(b)=f`

In order to solve the previous equation for x, you proceed as follow:

`\begin{gathered} (-10x+14)/(b)=f \\ -10x+14=fb \\ -10x=fb-14 \\ x=(fb-14)/(-4) \\ x=-(1)/(4)fb+(14)/(4) \\ x=-(1)/(4)fb+(7)/(2) \end{gathered}`

when you have used on each step:

- multiply by b both sides

- subtract 14 both sides

- divide by -4 both sides

- simplify

Hence, the solution for x is:

`x=-(1)/(4)fb+(7)/(2)`
