Question

How do you solve for P in `Q=Px+Pmt`?

Answer 1

`color(green)(P=Q / ( x +mt)`

Explanation:

`Q = color(green)(P)x + color(green)(P)mt`

`color(green)(P` is common to both terms of the L.H.S:

`Q = color(green)(P) ( x +mt)`

`Q / ( x +mt) = color(green)(P)`

`color(green)(P) =Q / ( x +mt)`
