S=\left(\frac{1}{2}v_{0}+\frac{1}{2}v\right)t
Use the distributive property to multiply \frac{1}{2} by v_{0}+v.
S=\frac{1}{2}v_{0}t+\frac{1}{2}vt
Use the distributive property to multiply \frac{1}{2}v_{0}+\frac{1}{2}v by t.
\frac{1}{2}v_{0}t+\frac{1}{2}vt=S
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\left(\frac{1}{2}v_{0}+\frac{1}{2}v\right)t=S
Combine all terms containing t.
\frac{v+v_{0}}{2}t=S
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{2\times \frac{v+v_{0}}{2}t}{v+v_{0}}=\frac{2S}{v+v_{0}}
Divide both sides by \frac{1}{2}v_{0}+\frac{1}{2}v.
t=\frac{2S}{v+v_{0}}
Dividing by \frac{1}{2}v_{0}+\frac{1}{2}v undoes the multiplication by \frac{1}{2}v_{0}+\frac{1}{2}v.
