Algebra.Com's Answer #20547 by kietra(57)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! 3x=wyz \n" ); document.write( "solve for x, w, and y\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To solve for a variable, say x, you are going to work the problem around so you have x= something. You won't be able to get rid of all the letters in this case. \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "First, solve for x. \n" ); document.write( "To get x by itself, you'll have to divide by 3 on both sides. \n" ); document.write( "3x = wyz \n" ); document.write( "x = wyz/3\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To solve for w, divide yz on both sides \n" ); document.write( "3x = wyz \n" ); document.write( "3x/yz = w\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To solve for y, divide both sides by wz. \n" ); document.write( "3x = wyz \n" ); document.write( "3x/wz = y \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If you have more questions, come back!\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
