Question

Solve the equation for C variable! r-C=P

Answer 1

C = r - p

add C to both sides of the equation

r = p + C

subtract p from both sides

r - p = C ⇒ C = r - p

Answer 2

`C=r-P`

Explanation:

`r-C=P`

We need to solve the equation for variable C

To get C alone we need to remove 'r' from the left hand side

Subtract 'r' from both sides

`r-C=P`

`r-r-C=-r+P`

`-C=-r+P`

Now divide both sides by -1 to get C alone

`C=r-P`

C is alone, It is solved for C
