Tripp Hicks · Answer 1

b = a - c - p

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

p + b + c = a

Isolate b by subtracting p and c from both sides

b = a - c - p

Dalia Carrillo · Answer 2

(a-p) - c=b

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract p from both sides

p+b+c=a

-p - p

b+c=a-p

next subtract c from both sides and that is your final answer

b+c=a-p

-c - c

b = (a-p) - c
