Assume that I=E/(R+r) prove that I/I=R/E+r/E
Answers
Answer:
= E/R + r for r
I understand how to do this if there was not a "+ r" in the equation, but I am lost when it comes to the "+ r". I don't know what you do with it. I think it would turn into a "1r".
I = E/r, then multiply both sides by r,and end up with the answer: E/I = r?
Please let me know if this is correct, of if I am at least on the right track. Thanks for your help.

Do you mean I+=+E%2F%28R+%2B+r%29, solve for r?? If this is what you meant, then you needed parentheses around the (R+r). If that is NOT what you meant, then the solution is quite different from what I am about to do--resubmit the problem, we'll take another look at it. Also, remember that
in math, capital R and lower case r are considered two different variables!
Assuming this is the problem you had in mind:
I%2F1+=+E%2F%28R%2Br%29+. Remember a%2Fb=c%2Fd? It means ad=+bc.
In the same way, I%2F1+=+E%2F%28R%2Br%29+ means that
I%2A%28R%2Br%29+=+1%2AE
Remove parentheses:
IR + Ir = E
Get the small r term all alone on the left side by subtracting IR from each side:
IR - IR + Ir = E - IR
Ir = E-IR
Last, divide both sides by I:
+%28Ir%29%2FI+=+%28E-IR%29%2FI+
+r+=+%28E-IR%29%2FI+
