p=1/r.s+d for s
please help me!!!???
Thank you!!
it says solve for s, not r
To solve for s in the equation p = 1/(r.s + d), we need to isolate s on one side of the equation.
Here are the steps to solve for s:
1. Start with the given equation: p = 1/(r.s + d)
2. Multiply both sides of the equation by (r.s + d) to eliminate the denominator:
p * (r.s + d) = 1
3. Distribute p to both terms inside the parentheses:
p * r.s + p * d = 1
4. Move the p * d term to the right side of the equation:
p * r.s = 1 - p * d
5. Divide both sides of the equation by p * r to isolate s:
(p * r.s) / (p * r) = (1 - p * d) / (p * r)
6. Cancel out the p * r terms:
s = (1 - p * d) / (p * r)
Therefore, the value of s in the equation p = 1/(r.s + d) is (1 - p * d) / (p * r).
if you mean
p = 1/(rs) + d then
p-d = 1/(rs)
rs = 1/(p-d)
r = s/(p-d)
Or, if you mean
p = 1/(rs+d) then
rs+d = 1/p
rs = 1/p - d = (d-p)/p
r = (d-p)/(sp)
