Re: More help algebra help please

Hi Stan,

Can you follow the thread and look at my reply to William Elliot where I 
explained what I had done.

It's not a burning issue for me, I just got stuck on this question in a 
test I recently took. I passed the test with 86% so I guess I can 
continue to live a wonderful life without knowing the model solution to 
this question.

Thanks you

Kindest regards

Martin
