How do you solve g= y-c+x for x
SOVA2 [1]
To solve for x just isolate x by moving the other variables so....:
First add c to both sides
g+c= y+x
Subtract y from both sides
g+c-y= x
That should be your final answer (we cannot come up with an actual digit for x because there are no numbers in this equation we simply can make an equation for x)

Ramu and ravi borrowed rs 8000​
Phoenix [80]

Answer: Rs. 11,520

Step-by-step explanation:

As the method of compounding is not stated, the default of simple interest will be used.

Simple interest is a fixed amount that is paid over the course of the loan and is based on the original amount borrowed.

Formula is:

Amount owed = Amount borrowed * ( 1 + rate * time)

= 8,000 * ( 1 + 8% * 5.5 years)

= 8,000 * 1.44

= rs 11,520
