How do i solve this equation?

ax-c=bx d



how do i solve for x?
do this:

ax-bx=d c (get Xs on one side)

x(a-b)=d c (factor out x)

x = (d c) / (a-b) (divide by (a-b))
ax-c=bx d



solution



ax-bx=c d



x(a-b)=c d



x=(c d)/(a-b)

What evidence contradicted the idea that heat was a fluid?

from count rumford
The fundamental observation is that a hot object does not lose mass as it cools. If heat were a fluid, cooling would cause a loss of mass and heating would cause an increase of mass.
From what I remember from high-school, it was a realization that it contradicted the laws of conservation (you could

I need to make a air tank on the cheap ? pvc?

i need to make a 300 gallon tank for like 30$ :D



also are there really wide pvc pipes so that i could achieve this?

like 4 feet wide and 6 feet tall?
it depends on how much pressure you need in this tank.



if the pressure is low then maybe you could get a couple of plastic barrels and join them. For the price you mention, I doubt you will be able to get a pipe this size.
For $30?

I don

Calculate the mass of 2.50 mol of CH3OH(1)?

Just multiply the number of moles by its molar weight



molar weight of CH3OH:

C = 1 x 12.0 = 12.0

O= 1 x 16.0 = 16.0

H= 4 x 1.01 = 4.04



Total = 32.04 g/mole



(2.50 moles)(32.04 g/mole) = 80.1 g

What is the difference between bacteria ad germs?

germs is the common term used to identify the microorganisms which cause diseases to humans

it is not a scientific term

bacteria are one of the groups of microorganisms (others are, viruses, fungi , algae)
