Question

10=ax-3b solving for x

Answer 1

10 = ax-3b
3b+10 = ax
(3b+10)/a = (ax)/a
x = (3b+10)/a

Answer 2

`x=(10+3b)/(a)`

Explanation:

The given equation is

`10=ax-3b`

We need to solve this equation for x.

Add 3b on both sides in the above equation.

`10+3b=ax-3b+3b`

`10+3b=ax`

Divide both sides by a in the above equation to isolate variable x.

`(10+3b)/(a)=(ax)/(a)`

`(10+3b)/(a)=x`

Interchange the sides.

`x=(10+3b)/(a)`

Therefore the solution of given equation is
`x=(10+3b)/(a)`.
