Make S the subject of the formula: \(V = \frac{K}{\sqrt{T-S}}\)

  • A. \(T-\frac{K^2}{V^2} = S\)
  • B. \(T+\frac{K^2}{V^2} = S\)
  • C. \(T-\frac{K^2}{V} = S\)
  • D. \(T-\frac{K}{V} = S\)

Correct Answer: A. \(T-\frac{K^2}{V^2} = S\)

Explanation

\(V = \frac{K}{\sqrt{T-S}}\)

square both sides of the equation

\(V^2 = \frac{K^2}{T-S}\)

cross multiply

\(V^2 T - S = K^2\)

\(T - S = \frac{K^2}{V^2}\)

\(T = \frac{K^2}{V^2} + S\)

\(T - = \frac{K^2}{V^2} = S\)
