Question

Solve for B. R = x(A + B) B = (R-A)/X B = (A-Rx)/X B = (R-Ax)/X

Answer 1

Answer: Solving the equation for B, we obtain B=(R-Ax)/x (Third option)

Solution:

R=x(A+B)

Solving for B: Dividing both sides of the equation by x:

R/x=x(A+B)/x

R/x=A+B

Subtracting A both sides of the equation:

R/x-A=A+B-A

R/x-A/1=B

B=R/x-A/1

Subtracting the fractions on the right side of the equation:

B=(R-Ax)/x

Answer 2

R = x(A + B) solve for B
B = (R-A)/X
