Question

Solve the indicated variable for this literal equation -10 = xy + z for x

Answer 1

X=y+z+10 you have to move the x by itself of the equal sign

Answer 2

     -10 = xy + z   Subtract z from both sides
-10 - z = xy         Divide both sides by y
$\frac{-10 - z}{y}$ = x   Switch the sides to make it easier to read
x = $\frac{-10 - z}{y}$
