Answer:

r =
(6a)/(5m^2-1)

Explanation:

Given

m =
\sqrt{(6a+r)/(5r) } ( square both sides )

m² =
(6a+r)/(5r) ( multiply both sides by 5r )

5rm² = 6a + r ( subtract r from both sides )

5rm² - r = 6a ← factor out r from each term on the left side

r(5m² - 1) = 6a ← divide both sides by (5m² - 1)

r =
(6a)/(5m^2-1)

Answer:

The answer is r = 6a / (5m² - 1).

Explanation:

The steps are :


m = \sqrt{ (6a + r)/(5r) }


{m}^(2) = (6a + r)/(5r)


5r {m}^(2) = 6a + r


5r {m}^(2) - r = 6a


r(5 {m}^(2) - 1) = 6a


r = \frac{6a}{5 {m}^(2) - 1 }
