Hi, I'm a bit confused with how to go about solving part of a word problem......
The formula: C = 4*d-1/3 b
when d = 23245 and b = 13.5
[FONT="]C = 4(23,245) -1/3 (13.5)
[/FONT][FONT="]C = 4(.035)(13.5)
[/FONT][FONT="]C = .14(13.5)[/FONT]
I already solved the first part for C and came up with 1.89 (my work is shown above).
the second part asks us to solve for d, but the example given is a bit confusing and gives the following formula: D = 1.1g-1/4 H
I am not sure which number I am supposed to use (in place of the 1.1 given in the example) to solve for d. I think that it is one of the numbers from the steps taken to solve for C in the first part of this problem, I am just a bit confused on how to determine which value to use. Please help point me in the right direction!
