Transform the equation to isolate x: ax = bx + 1. how is
the value of x related to the difference of a and b?

The value of x is inversely proportional to the difference of a and b.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

We factor the left hand side to get:

We divide both sides by: a-b

Observe that the difference of a and b is in the denominator.

The whole is of the form:

The value of x is inversely proportional to the difference of a and b.

false

step-by-step explanation:

the reason i say this is because for a certain length of sides you can pick any two and the length is wither equal or greater than the third side and in this case it's not.

3 + 5 = 8

8 is smaller than 9 which is the third side.

hope this : )
