Given the equation p = s Subscript 1 Baseline t minus 2 Subscript 2 Baseline t, which equation is solved for t? t = p (s Subscript 1 Baseline minus s Subscript 2 Baseline) t = p minus s Subscript 1 Baseline minus s Subscript 2 t = StartFraction p Over s Subscript 1 Baseline minus s Subscript 2 Baseline EndFraction t = StartFraction p Over s Subscript 1 Baseline + s Subscript 2 Baseline EndFraction

A. t = p (s Subscript 1 Baseline minus s Subscript 2 Baseline)
B. t = p minus s Subscript 1 Baseline minus s Subscript 2
C. t = StartFraction p Over s Subscript 1 Baseline minus s Subscript 2 Baseline EndFraction
D. t = StartFraction p Over s Subscript 1 Baseline + s Subscript 2 Baseline EndFraction

Answer:

Option C) is correct

That is t=StartFraction p Over s Subscript 1 Baseline minus s Subscript 2 Baseline EndFraction

It also can be written as
t=(p)/(s_(1)-s_(2))

Explanation:

Given equation can be written as below:


p=s_(1)t-s_(2)t

Now to solve the equation for t:


p=s_(1)t-s_(2)t

Taking common term t outside on RHS we get


p=(s_(1)-s_(2))t


(p)/(s_(1)-s_(2))=t

Rewritting the above equation as below


t=(p)/(s_(1)-s_(2))

Therefore option C) is correct

That is t=StartFraction p Over s Subscript 1 Baseline minus s Subscript 2 Baseline EndFraction

It also can be written as
t=(p)/(s_(1)-s_(2))
