    Solve for d in terms of a, b, and c

    Hi everyone,

    this math problem is probably really easy to solve, but since I'm not a native
    English speaker I'm not completely sure what to do. It would be wonderful if
    someone could help me out.

    The problem:

    Solve for d (in terms of a, b, and c) in the following equation:

    1 + a = b/(c X d2)

    c\cdot d^2=\frac{b}{1+a}

    d^2=\frac{b}{c+ca}


    d=\pm\sqrt{\frac{b}{c+ca}}
