Answer 1

The Solution:

Given:

`P=(8.4Y+330T+100C-200I)/(A)`

We are required to make C the subject of the formula.

`\begin{gathered} P=(8.4Y+330T+100C-200I)/(A) \\ \\ Cross\text{ multiply.} \\ \\ 8.4Y+330T+100C-200I=PA \end{gathered}`

Thus,

`100C=PA+200I-(8.4Y+330T)`

Divide both sides by 100.

`C=(PA+200I-8.4Y-330T)/(100)`

Therefore, the correct answer is:

`C=(PA+200I-8.4Y-330T)/(100)`
