Transform the equation to isolate x: ax = bx + 1. How is the value of x related to the difference of a and b? The equation ax = bx + 1 is the same as x = 1/(a - b) when solved for x. This means that x is equal to the reciprocal of the difference of a and b. Sample Response: The equation ax = bx + 1 is the same as x = 1/(a - b) when solved for x. This means that x is equal to the reciprocal of the difference of a and b. What did you include in your response? Check all that apply. x = x equals StartFraction 1 Over a minus b EndFraction. x is the reciprocal of the difference of a and b. x is 1 over the difference of a and b. x is the quotient of 1 and the difference of a and b.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is awfully hard to read. Use returns to separate paragraphs.

ax = bx + 1                Subtract bx from both sides.

ax - bx = 1                take out x as a common factor

x(a - b) = 1                Divide both sides by a - b

x = 1 / (a - b)

I think the second one is the one you want.

x is the same as the reciprocal of the difference between a and b.
