Question

W= 2a + 3b for b ??????????

Answer 1

Hi :)

Let's make
`b` the subject of the formula. This is exactly the same as solving the equation for
`b`.

This is how we'll go about finding
`b`:

W=2a+3b

Let's get 2a out of the way by subtracting both sides by
`2a`:

W-2a=3b

Now just divide the whole equation by
`3`

`(W-2a)/(3)=b}`

We can turn this around. It won't change anything, as long as these two sides are equal

`b=(W-2a)/(3)`

Answer 2

`b = (w - 2a)/(3)`

Explanation:

Hello!

We are basically asked to solve for "b" or make "b" the subject.

Solve for b

• w= 2a + 3b
• w - 2a = 3b
• 
  `(w - 2a)/(3) = b`

The solution is
`b = (w - 2a)/(3)`.
