Answer: P + 6 - s

=================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

We undo the "minus 6" by adding 6 to both sides.

Also, we undo the "+s" by subtracting s from both sides

-----------

So we have these steps

P = r+s-6

P+6 = r+s-6+6 .... adding 6 to both sides

P+6 = r+s

r+s = P+6

r+s-s = P+6-s ..... subtracting s from both sides

r = P + 6 - s

Answer:

P+6-s=r

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the equation P=r+s-6 and we need to solve for r

To do that, we need to isolate r onto one side, and have everything else on the other.

Here is the equation:

P=r+s-6

start by adding 6 to both sides to clear it from the right side

P+6=r+s

now subtract s from both sides to clear it from the right side

P+6-s=r

now everything that isn't r is on the left side, and r is by itself on the right side. P+6-s=r is the answer.

Hope this helps!
