Question

Solve the following formula for the specified variable.
C=1/4h(s+k) solve for s???

Answer 1

if this was a normal equation, and all those variables were numbers, how would you solve for s?
hint: try to get s by itself

Answer 2

It's been so long since i actually did this type of problem

Answer 3

i also have a question about the original question
is it C=(1/4)h(s+k)
or
C=1/(4h(s+k))

Answer 4

it's the first one that you put on there

Answer 5

c=1/4h(s+k)

Answer 6

the first and easiest thing to get rid of is the 1/4
if we want to re-write the equation, we could like this:
c=(h(s+k))/4
since we are dividing by 4 on the right, we can multiply both sides by 4 to get closer to having s by itself (by moving the 4 over)
we get:
4c=h(s+k)
now, to get rid of that h
notice its being multiplied by the quantity inside the parenthesis
to move it to the other side, we need to divide both sides by h
(4c)/h=s+k
finally, subtract k from both sides to get your answer

ok im confused
