Question

Solve each formula for the specified variable. Assume that the denominator is not 0 if variables appear in the denominator. P=2l+2w,for w (perimeter of a rectangle)

Accepted Answer

Hello everybody. I'm doing all right today that we're going to be looking at this question that states rewrite the given formula in terms of the indicated variable where the formula is A equals seven P plus seven H. And we're trying to solve for H now the choices are A H equals seven, multiplying an open parentheses. Seven A minus P closed parentheses. B H equals open parentheses. Seven A minus P closed parentheses divided by seven C H is equal to seven, open multiplying an open parentheses. A minus seven P closed parentheses and DH is equal to open parentheses. A minus seven P, closed parentheses divided by seven. So all we have to do here is soft for H. So we want to isolate the H. So if we have a equals seven P plus seven H first, we want to move the seven P over from the right hand side to the left hand side by subtracting. So we'll have a minus seven P equals seven H. And now to isolate the H, we divide both sides by seven. So we'll have that H is equal to A minus seven P divided by seven. And we can stop right here because we can see that one of our answers already matches this form. And that answer is answer choice D H is equal to a fraction with the numerator having a minus seven P divided by seven in the denominator. So I hope that was helpful. And until next time.
