Question

The subject of the formula below is y. Y=2x-pq
Rearrange the formula to make x the subject

Answer 1

The formula is
`x=(y+pq)/(2)`

Explanation:

Given formula is

y = 2x - pq

Adding pq on both sides

y+pq = 2x - pq + pq

y+pq = 2x

2x = y+pq

Dividing both sides by 2

`(2x)/(2)=(y+pq)/(2)\\\\x=(y+pq)/(2)`
