Help guysmake p da subject of the formula​

Mathematics

Answer:

p=\dfrac{m}{k-s}

Step-by-step explanation:

When they ask you to make a variable the "subject of the formula", they're basically asking you to build a "machine" for it. In the expression y=mx+b, for instance, if we know what m, x, and b are, we can plug them all in and out comes a value for y! To build that machine, we need to get it by itself on one side of the equation.

So, we want to build this machine for p, and the equation we have to build it out of is

1=\dfrac{pk}{m+sp}

One think we can immediately say about this equation: for a fraction to be equal to one, its numerator and denominator have to be equal to each other. So we can say

m+sp=pk

Ok, what next? Well, if we want p by itself, we need to somehow peel it off of that <em>sp</em> and <em>pk</em>. Let's collect them on the right side by subtracting <em>sp </em>from both sides:

m=pk-sp

p is a <em>common factor</em> of both <em>sp </em>and <em>pk</em>, so we can peel it away using the distributive property:

m=p(k-s)

And from here, we can divide both sides by k-s and we'll have p as our subject:

\dfrac{m}{k-s}=p or p=\dfrac{m}{k-s}

So if we know m, k, and s, we can easily solve for p. If m = 4, k = 2, and s = 0:

p=\frac{4}{2-0} =\frac{4}{2}=2

Hey, to find the area of the rhombus all you have to do is multiple the horizontal part in the inside to the vertical part (also inside the rhombus). After that divide by two and you have your answer.

Last week f40 fifth graders went on a field trip to the science museum
Xelga [282]
8 out of 40 fifth graders went to see the lab animal presentation. This can be written as this expression:

\frac{8}{40}

Find the greatest common factor of 8 and 40:

Factors of 8: 1, 2, 4, 8
Factors of 40: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40

Therefore the greatest common factor is 8. Divide both the numerator and the denominator by 8.

\frac{8}{40} = \frac{8/8}{40/8} = \frac{1}{5}

Therefore the fractional part is \frac{1}{5}.

To get the percentage, you need to get the denominator to a value of 100.

To do so, you need to find the value to multiply both the numerator and denominator by to achieve this.

To get this value, you can divide 100 by the denominator of the fractional value.

100 / 5 = 20

Then you can multiply both the numerator and denominator by 20:

\frac{1}{5} = \frac{1 * 20}{5 * 20} = \frac{20}{100}

From here, the numerator will state the percentage:

20\%

Hope this helps :)
