Given:
j = k^2/4
Solve for k.
Solution:
In order to solve for k, we simply need to multiply 4 on both sides of the equation first to cancel out 4 in the denominator.
j = k^2/4
(4)j = (4) k^2/4
k^2 = 4j
Take the square root of both sides of the equation in order to cancel out k^2, hence we can take the square root by enclosing both sides with a square root sign or raising both sides by ½.
(k^2)^½ = (4j)^½
Final answer:
k = (4j)^½
Final answer:
k = (4j)^½
