xt=\sqrt{a+bx}
Multiply both sides of the equation by t.
\sqrt{a+bx}=xt
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
a+bx=t^{2}x^{2}
Square both sides of the equation.
a+bx-bx=t^{2}x^{2}-bx
Subtract bx from both sides of the equation.
a=t^{2}x^{2}-bx
Subtracting bx from itself leaves 0.
a=x\left(xt^{2}-b\right)
Subtract bx from x^{2}t^{2}.
xt=\sqrt{a+bx}
Multiply both sides of the equation by t.
\sqrt{a+bx}=xt
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
xb+a=t^{2}x^{2}
Square both sides of the equation.
xb+a-a=t^{2}x^{2}-a
Subtract a from both sides of the equation.
xb=t^{2}x^{2}-a
Subtracting a from itself leaves 0.
\frac{xb}{x}=\frac{t^{2}x^{2}-a}{x}
Divide both sides by x.
b=\frac{t^{2}x^{2}-a}{x}
Dividing by x undoes the multiplication by x.
b=xt^{2}-\frac{a}{x}
Divide x^{2}t^{2}-a by x.
