Question

Make x the subject of the formula a=b(1-x)​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -(a - b)/b

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

a = b (1 - x)

a = b (1 - x) is equivalent to b (1 - x) = a:

b (1 - x) = a

Divide both sides by b:

1 - x = a/b

Subtract 1 from both sides:

-x = (a - b)/b

Multiply both sides by -1:

Answer: x = -(a - b)/b
