Answer

$d=2Q-c$

Work Step by Step

$\bf{\text{Solution Outline:}}$ To solve the given equation, $ Q=\dfrac{c+d}{2} $ for $ d ,$ use the properties of equality to isolate the variable. $\bf{\text{Solution Details:}}$ Using the properties of equality to isolate the variable, the equation above is equivalent to \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} Q=\dfrac{c+d}{2} \\\\ 2\cdot Q=2\cdot\dfrac{c+d}{2} \\\\ 2Q=c+d \\\\ 2Q-c=d \\\\ d=2Q-c .\end{array}
