Question

Make & the subject of the
Formula
6x ta=5(x+t)

What is the answer please

Answer 1

Answer is x = 5t-a

6x+a = 5(x+t) Expand the bracket
6x+a = 5x+5t Subtract the least x’s (so 5x)
x+a = 5t Subtract a to make x the subject
x = 5t-a

Answer 2

x = 5t - a

Explanation:

The problem deals with making a variable the subject of the formula in the expression.

Given expression:

6x + a = 5(x + t)

We are to make x the subject of the formula in the expression

Solution:

6x + a = 5(x+t)

On the right hand side, expand the parentheses and distribute the term outside;

6x + a = 5x + 5t

Bring the term desired to be the subject to one side by adding (-5x) to both sides;

6x + (-5x) + a = 5x + (-5x) + 5t

x + a = 5t

Now add (-a) to both sides

x + a + (-a) = 5t + (-a)

x = 5t - a
