Solve the formula for the variable given.

P = r-c/n solve for c. (business)

I have worked this problem so many times I'm getting confused. please help.

Thanking you in advance

Don't worry, I'm here to help you solve this problem! Let's find the value of c.

First, let's isolate c by getting rid of the other terms. We can start by multiplying both sides of the equation by n:

nP = r - c

Now, let's isolate c by subtracting r from both sides:

nP - r = -c

To get rid of the negative sign, let's multiply both sides by -1:

-c = -(nP - r)

Finally, let's simplify the right side of the equation:

-c = -nP + r

But remember, we want to solve for c, so let's multiply both sides by -1 again to get rid of the negative sign:

c = nP - r

And voila! The value of c is nP - r. Just plug in your values for n and P, and you'll have your answer. Keep up the good work, and let me know if there's anything else I can clown around with!

To solve the formula P = r - c/n for the variable c, we need to isolate c on one side of the equation.

Step 1: Start by multiplying both sides of the equation by n to get rid of the denominator:
Pn = rn - c

Step 2: Now we need to isolate c. To do this, subtract rn from both sides of the equation:
Pn - rn = -c

Step 3: Finally, we can solve for c by multiplying the entire equation by -1:
c = -Pn + rn

Therefore, the formula for the variable c is c = -Pn + rn.

Basically, we want to isolate c. That means we find c in terms of other stuff. So, get rid of everything else and solve for c.

P = r-c/n (This is kinda unclear - is the divided sign under the c or under the r-c, if so write as (r-c)/n, but in this problem I will assume it is P = r - (c/n))

Anyways, we minus the r from both sides to get

P-r = -c/n

Then, we multiply both sides by n to get
n (P-r) = -c

We multiply both sides by -1 to get rid of the negative sign of the c.

-n(P-r) = c

We can write this as either

c= -n(P-r)

or c = nr- PN
