To rearrange the formula \( y = mx + b \) using \( x \) as the quantity of interest, the first step you would take is to subtract \( b \) from both sides of the equation. This will help isolate the term involving \( x \) on one side of the equation.

So, the correct response is: Subtract b from both sides of the equation.

Which of the following is an example of using the Division Property of Equality to rearrange the equation PV=nRT?(1 point)
Responses

n=PVRT
n equals Start Fraction upper P upper V over upper R upper T End Fraction

T=PVnR
upper T equals upper P upper V n upper R

R=PV−nT
upper R equals upper P upper V minus n upper T

R=nTPV
upper R equals Start Fraction n upper T over upper P upper V End Fraction
