Question

Solve tor r. *a(5 – x) = bz - 8

Answer 1

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the given equation is

$a(5 - r) = bz - 8$

To solve for r, we first divide both sides by a.

$5 - r = \frac{ bz - 8}{a}$

We now subtract 5 from both sides:

$- r = \frac{ bz - 8}{a} - 5$

We now divide through by - 1 to get:

$r = 5 - \frac{ bz - 8}{a}$

Or

$r = \frac{5a - bz + 8}{a} \: \: where \: a \ne0$
