How do you convert a=1/2bh to solve for b?

to solve for a variable means to isolate the variable on one side of the equation.

note: we can write (1/2)(bh) as one fraction like this (bh/2). they mean the same thing.

we now have this:

a = (bh/2)

we multiply both sides of the fractional equation by 2. this is done to remove the fraction.

doing this we now have a linear equation:

2a = bh

we now divide both sides of the equation by h to find the value of b.

final answer:

(2a/h) = b

y = 2x

step-by-step explanation:

if you divide each number in the sequence, you'll see that they all have a multiple factor of 2. each number in the series, and any other numbers which may continue, will be multiplied by 2. therefore, y is the next number in the sequence, and x is the current one, so, our formula will be y = 2x.
