Solve the given equation for the indicated variable. Assume that all denominator are nonzero and that all variables represent positive real number. (See Example 1.)
Example 1
Solve v = mx2 + x. (Assume that m and v are positive.)
Solution
The equation is quadratic in x become of the x2 term. Before we use the quadratic formula, we write the equation in standard form:
Let a = m, b = 1, and c = −v. Then the quadratic formula gives
