You can put this solution on YOUR website!
p=s%2Bt%2Bu Start with the given equation.


0=s%2Bt%2Bu-p Subtract p from both sides.


-u=s%2Bt-p Subtract u from both sides.


u=%28s%2Bt-p%29%2F%28-1%29 Divide both sides by -1 to isolate u.


u=-s-t%2Bp Divide and simplify.


u=p-s-t Rearrange the terms.

Answer:

So the solution is u=p-s-t
