Ax + c = R (subtract c from each side)

Ax + c - c = R - c

Ax = R - c (divide A from each side)

Ax/A = (R-c)/A

x =
(R-c)/(A) <-answer

Answer:


x=(R-c)/(A)

Explanation:

Given equation,


Ax + c = R---(1)

For getting the equation for x,

We need to isolate x in the left side,

Subtract c on both sides of equation (1),


Ax = R - c

Divide both sides by A,


x=(R-c)/(A)

Which is the required equation.
