Question

1/t=h+y/x
-Solve for x, t, and y?

Answer 1

there are 3 variables but one equation, i think it can't be solved with the given data.

Answer 2

Algebraic manipulation

Answer 3

you have
\[\frac{1}{t}=h+\frac{y}{x}\]for t:
\[t=\frac{x}{xh+y}\]and so forth

Answer 4

I believe "solve for" stands for "express in terms of" in this case.

Answer 5

so this is invalid?

Answer 6

What is invalid?

Answer 7

I mean your not actually solving the variable?

Answer 8

If you're trying to find a number solution, you won't be able to. The Pythagorean theorem
\[a^2+b^2=c^2\]cannot be solved as it stands, yet is it "invalid"?

Answer 9

Nooo I know that but im not looking for a number solution I think what you said by "express in terms" is what im looking for
