Solve ry + s = tx - m for y. Explain each step in your solution.

Would there be any limitations for the value of each variable? If so, explain the limitation.
Please give a correct answer

The value of y is
(tx-m-s)/(r) where the limitation for the variable r is
r\\eq 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression is
r y+s=t x-m

To determine the value of y, let us simplify the equation.

Subtracting both sides by s, we have,


r y=t x-m-s

Dividing both sides by r, we get,


y=(tx-m-s)/(r)

Thus, the value of y is
(tx-m-s)/(r)

The limitations of the variable are only
r\\eq 0. Because if
r=0, then the solution of y would be undefined.

Hence, the limitations of the variable is
r\\eq 0
