Question

Which equation is equivalent to S = Ph + 2B?

Answer 1

Answer:

$h = \frac{S - 2B}{P}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$S=Ph + 2B$

Required

Select an equivalent expression (see attachment)

$S=Ph + 2B$

Subtract 2B from both sides

$S - 2B = Ph + 2B - 2B$

$S - 2B = Ph$

Divide both sides by P

$\frac{S - 2B}{P} = \frac{Ph}{P}$

$\frac{S - 2B}{P} = h$

Reorder

$h = \frac{S - 2B}{P}$ --- Option (b)
