<h3>Given</h3>
P = 3r + 2s
<h3>Find</h3>
the corresponding equation for s
<h3>Solution</h3>
First of all, look at how this is evaluated in terms of what happens to a value for s.
- s is multiplied by 2
- 3r is added to that product
To solve for s, you undo these operations in reverse order. The "undo" for addition is adding the opposite. The "undo" for multiplication is division (or multiplication by the reciprocal).
... P = 3r + 2s . . . . . . starting equation
... P - 3r = 2s . . . . . . -3r is added to both sides to undo addition of 3r
... (P -3r)/2 = s . . . . . both sides are divided by 2 to undo the multiplication
Note that the division is of everything on both sides of the equation. That is why we need to add parentheses around the expression that was on the left—so the whole thing gets divided by 2.
Your solution is ...
... s = (P - 3r)/2

Answer:
f(x) = - 4x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
A linear function has the form
f(x) = ax + b, thus
f(0) = a(0) + b = 4, that is
0 + b = 4 , hence b = 4
f(3) = 3a + b = - 8 ← substitute b = 4
3a + 4 = - 8 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
3a = - 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )
a = - 4, thus
f(x) = - 4x + 4
Answer:
whichever of these formats you need its the same answer (16/6) or 2.66666 or (2 and 2/3rds)
Step-by-step explanation:
replace smaller variable with x for example
(x) + (5x-1) = 17
6x-1=17
6x=16
x=(16/6 or 2.666666 or 2and2/3)
-10/5 or -8/4
You can make up an equation with the solution of -2 by multiplying -2 by any number ( for example -2 x 5 ) and then divide the result by the random factor you chose ( which would be 5 in this case )
Answer: Yes, It is 315, I'm 100% honest!
