SOLUTION: Question is solve for a, showing all steps equation is d=vt+5at^2
first step, subtract vt from each side, so d-vt=.5at^2
next, divide by .5t^2 (question 1, can I do this in o

Question 785194: Question is solve for a, showing all steps equation is d=vt+5at^2
first step, subtract vt from each side, so d-vt=.5at^2
next, divide by .5t^2 (question 1, can I do this in one step or should I do it in two, first .5 then t^2?)
so answer is d-vt/.5t^2=a
Second question, is that correct? I feel like I missed a step. It just doesn't look right. Thank you in advance for any help you might be able to provide. Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! solve for a, showing all steps equation is d=vt+0.5at^2
------
0.5at^2 = (d-vt)
------
a = (d-vt)/(0.5t^2)
-----------
