Solve for A in the equation below. Diagram:
A. A = t(kr+P)
B. A = (kr+P)/t
C. A = P-kr/t
D. A = kr-t/P
P-At=-kr
Subtract P on both sides
P-P-At=-kr-P
-At=-kr-P
Divide both sides by -t
-At/-t=(-kr-P)/-t
A=(kr+P)/t
Therefore, the Correct Answer is B.

Q #1: Which of the following is the value of x in the equation below
A. x= -4 or x=2
B. x= -2 or x=3
C. x =-2 or x= 4
D. x= -2 or x= 1
Answer Explanation
we find the value of x by applying the absolute conditions to the given equation.
First, add 2 to both sides of equation
The absolute conditions are:
If
, a>0, then u=a or u=-aIn this case a=10, which is greater 0.
The first condition becomes
Add 2 to both sides of the equation
Divide both sides by 4
The second condition becomes
Add 2 to both sides of the equation
Divide both sides by 4
Then, the value of x is 3 or -2.

Q #2: Solve for A in the equation below. Diagram:
A. A = t(kr+P)
B. A = (kr+P)/t
C. A = P-kr/t
D. A = kr-t/P
Answer Explanation
P-At=-kr
Subtract P on both sides
P-P-At=-kr-P
-At=-kr-P
Divide both sides by -t
-At/-t=(-kr-P)/-t
A=(kr+P)/t

Q #3: To determine the cost of a laptop, the seller considers the brand of the laptop, the tax rate, and the memory size. Which of the following is the dependent variable?
A. Cost of a laptop
B. Tax rate
C. Memory size
D. Brand of the laptop
Answer Explanation
A dependent variable is one that depends on the independent variable. An independent variable is one that when changed result in a change of another variable.
In this problem, if we change the brand of laptop, tax rate, and memory size, the price of the laptop changes. Thus, the cost of the laptop is the dependent variable.
