Surfing For Physics Formulas For Waves?

Mark asks…physics light wave help???????use the formula λ=xd/nL and describe how the following changes affect the x distance in the interference pattern:

A) decreasing the wavelength

B) decreasing the d distance

C) increasing the length to the screen

D) based n the answer to part a, which light diffracts more, the blue or the red

thank you for any helpNancy answers:Solve the equation for x
λnL = xd
x = λnL/d where L is the distance of the screen, d is the width of the slit

A)
