Solve each literal equations for the indicated variable
D = C - s/n ( for s)
s/n = D - C
Next, multiply both sides of the above equation by n, to get the equation for s.
i don't understand could you type it how it looks
This is an example Tammy
If you have z/b = x + y and you want the equation in z, then you multiply both sides by b, thus
b*(z/b)=b*(x + y) which gives you
z=b(x + y)
You could choose to leave it like this, unless distributing the b simplified the equation.
In your equation you're asked to multiply both sides by n.
THANK YOU SO MUCH
help... what is P - Q = -R, for Q
been out with the flu all week and don't have any examples like these? Thanks
To solve the equation P - Q = -R for Q, we need to isolate the variable Q on one side of the equation.
First, let's get rid of the negative sign in front of R by multiplying both sides of the equation by -1:
(-1)(P - Q) = (-1)(-R)
This gives us:
-Q + P = R
Now, we want to isolate Q, so we move P to the other side of the equation:
-Q = R - P
Finally, to solve for Q, we can multiply both sides of the equation by -1:
(-1)(-Q) = (-1)(R - P)
Which simplifies to:
Q = -R + P
Therefore, the solution for Q in the equation P - Q = -R is Q = -R + P.
