  • Question
  • If V = 12R / (r + R) , then R =


  • Options
  • A. Vr / (12 - V)
  • B. Vr + (V /12 )
  • C. V
  • D. V / (r - 12 )

  • Correct Answer
  • Vr / (12 - V) 

    Explanation

    We have to rearrange the equation to make R the subject.

    Start by cross multiplying by (r + R); V (r + R) = 12R

    Multiply out the bracket Vr + VR = 12R
