y=xm+am
Use the distributive property to multiply x+a by m.
xm+am=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
am=y-xm
Subtract xm from both sides.
ma=y-mx
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{ma}{m}=\frac{y-mx}{m}
Divide both sides by m.
a=\frac{y-mx}{m}
Dividing by m undoes the multiplication by m.
a=-x+\frac{y}{m}
Divide y-xm by m.
y=xm+am
Use the distributive property to multiply x+a by m.
xm+am=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\left(x+a\right)m=y
Combine all terms containing m.
\frac{\left(x+a\right)m}{x+a}=\frac{y}{x+a}
Divide both sides by x+a.
m=\frac{y}{x+a}
Dividing by x+a undoes the multiplication by x+a.
y=xm+am
Use the distributive property to multiply x+a by m.
xm+am=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
am=y-xm
Subtract xm from both sides.
