Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the expression: P= I + HB
Where:
- P = cost of the phone Liam is saving for.
- I = amount of money he started with.
- H = number of hours he babysits
- B = hourly rate for babysitting.
We want to find an expression for H, the number of hours Liam will need to babysit to save enough money for a cell phone.
Our goal is to isolate the variable H in the expression P= I + HB.
P= I + HB
Subtract I from both sides
P-I=I-I+HB
HB=P-I
Divide both sides by B
