d= 1- 4bh

Explanation:

- 8b = 2d - 2/h

Multiply both sides of the equation by h.

- 8bh = 2d - 2

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left-hand side.

2d - 2 = - 8bh

Add 2 to both sides.

2d = - 8bh + 2

The equation is in standard form.

2d = 2 - 8bh

Divide both sides by 2.

2d/2 = 2 - 8bh/2

Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.

d = 2 - 8bh/2

Divide -8bh + 2 by 2.

Therefore: d = 1 - 4bh
