@iPwnBunnies how do i do this formula ?

OpenStudy (elisaneedshelp):

\[\frac{ 3.17 }{ x }=\frac{ x }{ 1.85 }\]

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

You mean how do you solve for x?

OpenStudy (elisaneedshelp):

Yeah im so lost with the 2 xs

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

Cross multiply. (3.17)(1.85) = x^2 Use square root function, you'll get a positive and negative answer.

OpenStudy (elisaneedshelp):

i got 2.4 if you meant for me to do \[\sqrt{3.17\times1.85}\]

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

Yes. But it'd be +2.4 and -2.4
