Answer with explanation:

The expression from which we have to find the value of h and r is


x=r- (h)/(y)

Adding
(h)/(y) on both sides


r=x+(h)/(y)

Subtracting x from both sides


(h)/(y)=r-x\\\\y=(h)/(r-x)

x = r - h/y ; Solve for h & r

Let's first solve for h :)

Add h/y to both sides.

h/y + x = r

So, r = h/y + x

Now, let's solve for h.

x = r-h/y

Subtract r from both sides.

-r + x = -h/y

Multiply both sides by y.

y(-r + x) = y(-h/y)

Simplify.

-ry + xy = -h

Divide both sides by -1.

ry - xy = h

So, h = ry - xy

~Hope I helped!~
