Question

Which equation is the result of solving y-p=m(x-q) for x?

x=y-p+mq / m

x= m (y-p)+q

x=m (y-p)+q

x=y-p-mq /m

picture is just for fun

Answer 1

the answer is the d. x= (y-p-mq)/m

Answer 2

Answer: $x=\dfrac{y-p+mq}{m}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation: $y-p=m(x-q)$

To solve for x, first we need to divide m on both the sides of the above equation, we get

$x-q=\dfrac{y-p}{m}$

Now for the second step , we need to add q on the both sides of the equation, we get

$x=\dfrac{y-p}{m}+q=\dfrac{y-p+mq}{m}$

Hence, the  equation is the result of solving for x : $x=\dfrac{y-p+mq}{m}$
