Answer:
"subtracting b, then dividing by m"
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for a particular variable, look a the operations that are being performed on that variable. Then "undo" those operations in reverse order.
Here, the operations done to x are ...
• multiply by m
• add b to the product
Using the above recipe, first we "undo" the additon of b. We accomplish that by subtracting b from both sides of the equation. This gives ...
y - b = mx + b - b
y - b = mx . . . . . . . . . simplify
Next, we "undo" the multiplicatin by m. We accomplish that by dividing both sides of the equation by m.
(y -b)/m = mx/m
(y -b)/m = x . . . . . . . . simplify
This is your solution for x:
x = (y - b)/m
We found it by subtracting b, then dividing by m on both sides of the equation.
To efficiently double the volume of a square pyramid, you need to double the height of the pyramid.
<span>V = (1/3)Ah where A is the area of the base. If you double the height and leave A unchanged, the volume will also be doubled (replace h with 2h in the formula).</span>
