@Nnesha Can you show me the stops for solving for this problem?
steps*
first apply the distributive property: \[\huge \rm \color{Red}{x}(y-z)=\color{Red}{x}(y) -\color{Red}{x}(z) \] multiply all the terms inside the parentheses by outter number/varaible
\[\large \rm \color{Red}{x}(y-z)=\color{Red}{x}\cdot y -\color{Red}{x}\cdot z \]
do that part first
Oh, I had divided by a first
ab - ac = d is what I get after following your step
did you divide by a first ??
that works too
\[\large \rm ab-ac = d \] we have to solve for `c` therefore we need to move everything else to the other side. ab is positive at left side. in order to cancel out ab from left side we should subtract `ab` both sides \[\large \rm \color{Red}{-ab}+ ab-ac = d\color{ReD}{-ab} \]
I got -ac = d - ab
yes how would you cancel out `-a` from left side ?
divide by -a?
yes
got it ? :)
uuh
-ac = d - ab c = (d/-a) + (-ab/-a)
is that right
yes right negative/negative is positive so c=-d/a+ab/a
and then if we combine the fractions, we get (ab -d)/a Right?
yes good!
haha thank you
can you help me with another one?
yw o^_^o
hmm
its too late here.. i need to zzz. i have a class tomorrow at 8 so..>_< sorry
