Answer:


x=(c)/((b-a))

Explanation:

We have been given an expression:


ax=bx-c

To solve for 'x' we need to separate the variable 'x' and bring it on one side of the equation:


ax=bx-c


ax-bx=-c


x(a-b)=-c


x=(-c)/((a-b))


x=(c)/((b-a))

We need to filter out 'x' and equate it with the rest.
