Question

Solve the equation y = ax – b for the variable x.

Answer 1

Answer: y+b/a=x

Explanation:

add b to both sides of the equation

you should get y+b=ax

then divide a by both sides

you should get y+b/a=x

Answer 2

Explanation:

Step 1: Add b to both sides

`y + b = ax - b + b`

`y + b = ax`

Step 2: Divide both sides by a

`(y+b)/(a) = (ax)/(a)`

`(y+b)/(a) = x`

Answer:
`x = (y+b)/(a)`
