Hi, Hope I can help
.
I need help with this problem.
It is Solve for C: S= C + RC
Thank you for your help.
.
+S=+C+%2B+RC+
.
To solve for "C" we have to isolate, or get "C" by itself
.
We will rearrange,
.
+S=+C+%2B+RC+ = +S=+++RC+%2B+C+
.
We can factor the "C" out of the right side
.
+S=+++RC+%2B+C+ = +S=+++C%28R+%2B+1%29+
.
Now that we have only one "C" we can get "C" by itself
.
We will divide everything by (R+1)
.
+S=+++C%28R+%2B+1%29+ = +S%2F%28R%2B1%29=+++%28C%28R+%2B+1%29%29%2F%28R%2B1%29+ = +S%2F%28R%2B1%29=+++%28%28C%29+highlight%28R+%2B+1%29%29%2Fhighlight%28R%2B1%29+ = +S%2F%28R%2B1%29=+++%28%28C%29+cross%28R+%2B+1%29%29%2Fcross%28R%2B1%29+ = +S%2F%28R%2B1%29=+++C+, +C=+S%2F%28R%2B1%29+
.
+C=+S%2F%28R%2B1%29+
.
Hope I helped, Levi
