9.4x+a=42
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
a=42-9.4x
Subtract 9.4x from both sides.
9.4x+a=42
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
9.4x=42-a
Subtract a from both sides.
\frac{9.4x}{9.4}=\frac{42-a}{9.4}
Divide both sides of the equation by 9.4, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.
x=\frac{42-a}{9.4}
Dividing by 9.4 undoes the multiplication by 9.4.
x=\frac{210-5a}{47}
Divide 42-a by 9.4 by multiplying 42-a by the reciprocal of 9.4.
