s = 1/2 gt2, for g

Vocaloid:

so you want to get "g" by itself start by multiplying both sides by 2 let me know when you are done

hopesanddreams3453:

how do i multiply 2 on both sides

Vocaloid:

you multiply the left side you multiply the right side

hopesanddreams3453:

can you show me

Vocaloid:

you know how to multiply by 2 right? you just multiply each side of the equation by 2

Vocaloid:

1/2 gt2 * 2 = ?

hopesanddreams3453:

so is 1/2isg

Vocaloid:

hint: what is (1/2) * 2 = ?

hopesanddreams3453:

=1

Vocaloid:

good so 2 * 1/2 gt2 = 1 * gt^2 = gt^2 make sense?

hopesanddreams3453:

yes. is that the final answer to the question

Vocaloid:

remember what I said at the beginning

Vocaloid:

so you want to get "g" by itself

hopesanddreams3453:

how do i get g by itself

Vocaloid:

now we have: 2s = gt^2 divide both sides by t^2

hopesanddreams3453:

so 2s^2= gt^2 correct

Vocaloid:

???

Vocaloid:

I said to divide both sides by t^2

hopesanddreams3453:

what do i do with the 2s

Vocaloid:

take 2s write a division sign then put t^2 at the bottom that's how division works

hopesanddreams3453:

ok

Vocaloid:

2s/(t^2) = (gt^2)/(t^2) = g so g = 2s/(t^2) = your answer

hopesanddreams3453:

ok
