what is: x=b-cd, for c

OpenStudy (zpupster):

they want you to solve for c can you start it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

subtract b?

OpenStudy (zpupster):

yes from both sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay, so now I have x-b=-cd

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what next

OpenStudy (zpupster):

ok how will you isolate c on the right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do i divide by d?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

on both sides

OpenStudy (zpupster):

try - d

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so is that x-b-d=-c?

OpenStudy (zpupster):

no quite dividing - d would look like: x-b/-d=c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or did you mean to divide by -d on both sides?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay, thanks!
