Question

Z= -wxy
solve for x in terms of w,y,and z

Answer 1

Answer:
`x=-(z)/(wy)`

Explanation:

Problem: z = -wxy

1. Divide both sides by -w

`-(z)/(w) =xy`

2. Divide both sides by y

`-((z)/(w) )/(y) =x`

3. Simplify
`-((z)/(w) )/(y)` to
`(z)/(wy)`

`-(z)/(wy) =x`

4. Switch sides

`x=-(z)/(wy)`
