xsolve for x

3x-4y=z

1 answer

To solve for x, we isolate the variable x on one side of the equation.

3x - 4y = z

We want to get rid of the -4y term, so we add 4y to both sides of the equation:

3x - 4y + 4y = z + 4y

Simplifying:

3x = z + 4y

Now, to isolate x, we divide both sides of the equation by 3:

(3x)/3 = (z + 4y)/3

x = (z + 4y)/3

Therefore, x = (z + 4y)/3.
