Answer: Choice D) [tex]x = a\left(1-\frac{y}{b}\right)[/tex]
================================================
Work Shown:
[tex]\frac{x}{a}+\frac{y}{b} = 1\\\\\frac{x}{a} = 1-\frac{y}{b}\\\\x = a\left(1-\frac{y}{b}\right)\\\\[/tex]
Explanation:
First I subtracted y/b from both sides. Then I multiplied both sides by 'a' to fully isolate x. You can optionally distribute the 'a' through to each term inside the parenthesis, but your teacher has chosen not to do this.
