Question

If h=p/n what does p equal?

Answer 1

The goal is to isolate p. In other words, get p to its own side and have everything else on the other side.

To do this, you'll have to undo the division of 'n'. What is the opposite of division?

Answer 2

I do realize you must multiply the n to both sides which cancel out the n under p. So would my answer be nh=p?

Answer 3

yes \(\Large \color{blue}{ p = nh}\)

Answer 4

Does it matter if I write it p=nh or nh=p.does that make a difference

Answer 5

no it doesn't matter

x = y is the same as y = x

Answer 6

it doesnt make any difference i had this same question as u and i put nh=p

Answer 7

p = nh is more common since you list the isolated variable first on the left side

nh = p is still valid

Answer 8

Another one I'm stuck on, A=1/2bh walk me threw this

Answer 9

which letter are you trying to solve for?

Answer 10

h

Answer 11

I'm not sure what to do with the fraction multiply by the denominator?

Answer 12

a = 1/2bh Solve for h.
To solve for a variable means to isolate the variable on one side of the equation.
NOTE: We can write (1/2)(bh) as one fraction like this (bh/2). They mean the same thing.
We now have this:
a = (bh/2)
We multiply both sides of the fractional equation by 2. This is done to remove the fraction.

Doing this we now have a linear equation:
2a = bh
We now divide both sides of the equation by h to find the value of b.
Final answer:
(2a/b) = h
