Changing The Subject Of A Formula!
What is to be learned? • How to rearrange a formula
AB + g = M want to change to A = get rid of B and g
Rule 1 A + B = H Subtract B from each side - B - B A = H - B
Rule 2 A - B = H Add B to each side A = H + B
Rule 3 AB = H Divide each side by B A = H/B
Rule 4 A / B = H Multiply each side by B A = H X B
Summarising A + B = H → A = H – B A – B = H → A = H + B AB = H → A = H/B A/B= H → A = HB
Equations work like the magic bridge A = M (change subject to A ) B – G + G
Change subject to A A – R T = B A – R ( ) T + R = B
Changing the Subject of A Formula • Move unwanted letters (or numbers) to the other side. • Follow the magic bridge rules
R = PT + M PT + M R = – M R PT = R – M P = T
Change subject to B B G = – 6T MR B G = – 6T MR B G + 6T = MR ( ) = G + 6T B MR
