Question 265483: Your profit P is determined by subtracting the cost C (the amount of money it costs to operate a business) from the revenue R (the amount of money you earn from selling your product). Profit can be represented algebraically by the equations:
Profit=Revenue-Cost
OR
P = R � C
a) Rewrite the formula to solve for C. Demonstrate how you arrived at your answer with the detail calculations. P � R = C

You have P = R-C and you need to solve for C.
Begin by subtracting R from both sides of the equation so that you would have P - R = -C
Then multiply both sides by -1
then you would have -P +R = C.
Then R-P = C (Using the commutative property for addition)
