Answer:
[tex]x = \frac{15}{a-b}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation:
[tex]ax = 15+bx[/tex] ...[1]
Solve for x in terms of a and b.
Subtract bx from both sides in [1] we have;
[tex]ax-bx= 15+bx-bx[/tex]
Simplify:
[tex]ax-bx= 15[/tex]
or
[tex]x(a-b) = 15[/tex]
Divide both sides by (a-b) we have;
[tex]x = \frac{15}{a-b}[/tex]
therefore, the value of x is, [tex]x = \frac{15}{a-b}[/tex]
