Explanation:

Step 1: Define


\displaystyle U = (x(v + w))/(k)

Step 2: Solve for x

  1. [Multiplication Property of Equality] Multiply k on both sides:
    \displaystyle Uk = x(v + w)
  2. [Division Property of Equality] Isolate x:
    \displaystyle (Uk)/(v + w) = x
  3. Rewrite:
    \displaystyle x = (Uk)/(v + w)
