solve...Q=fw/f+w for w

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Let's start by writing it in a way we can see it: \[Q=\frac{fw}{f+w}\] Where are you getting stuck?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I dont know how to work it at all

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I started by multiplying both sides by \(f + w\), to get: \[Q(f+w) = fw\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's the same as \(Qf+Qw = fw\). Does that help you get started?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it explains it some

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you tell me what the answer is so I can try to rework it myself

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@geoffb

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm trying to help you along. I got you to \(Qf + Qw = fw\). There's very little to do from there to isolate \(f\).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Start by getting both terms containing \(f\) on one side of the equation.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nevermind dude...I just said..I don't know how to work it at all so if I seen it worked out that might have helped but nevermind...I hate people who act like they want to help then u want to be a jerk about it at the same time

Best of luck in life, @mathgirl501, and may your sense of entitlement take you great places.

and God bless you @geoffb, God takes care of those who sincerely take care of others
