Mathematics

sasho [114]3 years ago
6 0

\frac{ab}{2} = 2a - 1

2(\frac{ab}{2}) = 2(2a - 1) <em>multiplied both sides by 2 </em>

ab = 4a - 2 <em>distributed the 2 on the right side</em>

ab - 4a = -2 <em>subtracted 4a from both sides</em>

a(b - 4) = -2 factored out "a" from the left side

a = \frac{-2}{b - 4} <em>divided (b - 4) on both sides</em>

Answer: a = \frac{-2}{b - 4}
