Question

Make x the subject of the formula a − bx = c​

Answer 1

`(-c+a)/(b)`

Explanation:

a - bx = c

use substition method:

-bx = c - a

-1(-bx = c - a)

bx = -c + a

then divide both sides by b:

bx/b = -c+a/b

x =
`(-c+a)/(b)`

Answer 2

x = c - a / -b

Explanation:

a - bx = c

-a -a

-bx = c - a

divide -b

x = c - a / -b
