Answer:
[tex]r=\frac{q-ps}{p}[/tex]
General Formulas and Concepts:
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
- Equality Properties
- Distributive Property
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define equation
[tex]q=p(r+s)[/tex]
Step 2: Solve for r
- Distribute p: [tex]q=pr+ps[/tex]
- Subtract ps on both sides: [tex]q-ps=pr[/tex]
- Divide both sides by p: [tex]\frac{q-ps}{p} =r[/tex]
- Rewrite: [tex]r=\frac{q-ps}{p}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation: To solve for r, start by distributing the p
through the parentheses on the left side to get q = pr + ps.
Next, isolate the r term by subtracting ps from both sides to get -ps + q = pr.
Finally, to get r by itself, divide both sides by p and we have -ps + q/p = r.
