Question

Solve the formula for the specified variable
c=xy
solve for x

Answer 1

Answer:
`x= (c)/(y)`

Explanation:

You want to isolate x on the right side ((x)=) This means making x alone.

To do so, you want to divide y on both sides. Division is the opposite of x.

`(c)/(y)= (xy)/(y)`

The y's cancel out the right leaving:

`(c)/(y) = x`
