Given the equation:
r/s + a = 2b
Solve for r.
Solution:
In order to sovle for r, we simply needed to multiply s to both sides of the equation, to cancel out r/s.
r/s + a = 2b
(s)(r/s + a) = (s)(2b)
r + as = 2sb
Transpose a to the other side of the equation, hence it must be taken to note that in transposing a number, the sign changes
r = 2sb - as
Final answer:
r = 2sb - as
