subtract 3 both sides first. R-3=ts²

next, divide both sides by t, (R-3)/t=s²

finally, take the square root of both sides

√(R-3)/t = s. 2nd choice.

Answer:

The correct answer is the second option:
s=\sqrt{(R-3)/(t)}

Explanation:

The idea is to get the variable
s for alone on one side. To do that follows the following steps:

1. Pass the number
3 to subtract to the left.


R=t\cdot s^2+3


R-3=t\cdot s^2

2. Pass the letter
t to divide to the left side.


(R-3)/(t)=s^2

3. Take the squared root on both sides.


\sqrt{(R-3)/(t)}=√(s^2)

4. The right part can be simplified to
s because the power and the root are canceled.


\sqrt{(R-3)/(t)}=s

5. The solution of the equations is:


s=\sqrt{(R-3)/(t)}

Thus, the correct answer is the second option:
s=\sqrt{(R-3)/(t)}
