N=bv/b+v
N-v = bv/b
(N-v) = v
// i think you can solve it now.
OpenStudy (vortish):
you lost me on that what happened to the b's
OpenStudy (anonymous):
b/b = 1
OpenStudy (anonymous):
anything divided by itself is 1.
OpenStudy (vortish):
ok i get that (N-v)=v that is not the last step is it i have a hard time with these

OpenStudy (anonymous):
N-v = v
N = v+v
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Is it \(\large N = \frac{bv}{b+v}\) or \(\large N = \frac{bv}{b}+v\)
OpenStudy (vortish):
would that be the last step or would it be N=v^2 and wio the first one
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2+2 = 2(2)
v+v = 2(?)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
good observation @wio. I didn't think of that.

\[ \Large
\begin{array}{rcl}
N &=&\frac{bv}{b+v}\\
N(b+v) &=& bv \\
Nb+Nv &=& bv\\
Nb &=& bv-Nv \\
Nb &=& (b-N)v \\
\frac{Nb}{b-N} &=&v \\
\end{array}
\]
OpenStudy (vortish):
N=2v
OpenStudy (vortish):
so wio your saying that v= Nb/b-N right
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Put parenthesis around the denominator.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Otherwise that subtraction will happen at the wrong time.

OpenStudy (vortish):
v=(Nb)/b-N
OpenStudy (vortish):
wrong v=Nb/(b-N)
OpenStudy (vortish):
is there more to this equation
OpenStudy (vortish):
wio is there any more steps to this equation
OpenStudy (anonymous):
No.

ok but in the final answer i need the parentheses correct
