Question

Solve the formula for the indicated variable- S = L(1-r), for r

Answer 1

Answer:

r=$-\frac{S}{L} +1$

Step-by-step explanation:

You would want to isolate the r by itself by doing all the opposite operations.

First, you can divide the L to get

1-r =$\frac{S}{L}$

Next, move the 1 to the other side to get

-r=$\frac{S}{L} -1$

Then, we would not want to keep the negative so, move it to the other side to get

r= $-\frac{S}{L} +1$

(Note the 1 changed to a positive because we move the negative to the other side so, negative or negative 1 will be positive.
