Answer 1

Okay so you have (x-a)/b=c right?

First step I would suggest is taking the b up to the otherside and multiplying so you get:
x-a=b*c okay?
Then to solve for x, you just move the a to the otherside

So ultimately x=(b*c)+a

I'm trying not to give you the answers,but instead help you understand it as a general formula, I hope that is okay?

Answer 2

dont really get it

Answer 3

Okay no problem

So if you have (x-6)/2=3
you can times it all by 2

so you get x-6=3*2
so then you know that x-6=6 okay?

so if you want 'x' you would rearrange it so that x=6+6?

Does that clear things up?

Answer 4

supanick, maybe try guessing at how to turn the words into an equation and we can help you figure out if it's correct and why.

Answer 5

yes it did does thanks
