Answer

\[x=\frac{C+By}{A}\]

Work Step by Step

An expression can be solved for a variable by performing various mathematical operations to isolate a specified variable on one side of the expression. The expression can be solved for \[x\] as follows: \[Ax-By=C\] Add the term \[By\]to both sides of the expression \[Ax=C+By\] Divide both sides of the expression by \[A\] \[\begin{align} & \frac{Ax}{A}=\frac{C+By}{A} \\ & x=\frac{C+By}{A} \\ \end{align}\]
