Question

Rewrite the equation for x, and express its value in terms of a. 3/a x - 4 = 20

Answer 1

For this case, we must clear variable "x" from the given equation, expressed in terms of "a".

We have:

3/a x-4=20

By clearing "x" we have:

Adding 4 to both sides of the equation:

3/a x = 20 + 4

Multiplying by a/3 on both sides of the equation:

x=24a/3

x=8a

So, x=8a

Answer:

x=8a
