Hey there,
solving for a is just like you think of all other letter as a constant
i.e the only variable is a
so you need to subtract b as a start
d=a+b-c/3
-b -b
=============
-b+d=a-c/3 now it's time to add c/3 (isolate a by itself in one side)
-b+d=a-c/3
+c/3 +c/3
==============
c/3-b+d=a
Hence you have solved for a
Answer:
y = 4 + -2x
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
y = -2x + 4
Reorder the terms:
y = 4 + -2x
Solving
y = 4 + -2x
Solving for variable 'y'.
Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.
Simplifying
y = 4 + -2x
Alright, so the sum of two days is going to equal zero.
The variable here is what Jesse got on the first day. Let's call it "x".
x-6=0
x is the first day's score, -6 is the second day's score, and the total score is zero.
Now, add 6 to both sides.
x-6=0
+6 +6
x=6
Jesse's score for the first day was (+)6.
