Hello, how do you solve for x?

Given the equation:
\[ a = \frac{x-b}{y} \]

Asked by Sapita

Answer (2)

a = y x − b ​ y  = 0 x − b = a y x = a y + b

To solve for x in the equation a = y x − b ​ , first multiply both sides by y to get a y = x − b , then isolate x by adding b: x = a y + b . This expression shows how x depends on the constants a and b, with y affecting the outcome. Remember, y must not be zero.
