Answer:
a=\Large\boxed{-z-m+b}

Explanation:

Given expression


z=b-a-m

Add [ m ] on both sides


z+m=b-a-m+m


z+m=b-a

Subtract [ b ] on both sides


z+m-b=b-a-b


z+m-b=-a

Multiply -1 on both sides


(z+m-b)*(-1)=-a*(-1)


a=\Large\boxed{-z-m+b}

Hope this helps!! :)

Please let me know if you have any questions

Answer:

+a = b-m-z

Explanation:

Z = b-a-m

Collect like terms move -a to the left hand side and z to the right hand side -a becomes +a and z becomes -z

+a = b-m-z
