Answer & Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, so to solve for a in this equation means that we need to write the equation from the point of view of a, instead of b, which is the way it is currently written.
bc + ad = b
The first thing to do is isolate a, we do this by dividing every term in this by a.
a = bc/a + ad/a + b/a
a = d(bc + b)
Now, we need to divide d from the equation.
FINAL ANSWER: a = b/d - bc/d
