Solution for M(x+a)=p(x+b) equation:


Simplifying
M(x + a) = p(x + b)

Reorder the terms:
M(a + x) = p(x + b)
(a * M + x * M) = p(x + b)
(aM + xM) = p(x + b)

Reorder the terms:
aM + xM = p(b + x)
aM + xM = (b * p + x * p)
aM + xM = (bp + px)

Solving
aM + xM = bp + px

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1xM' to each side of the equation.
aM + xM + -1xM = bp + px + -1xM

Combine like terms: xM + -1xM = 0
aM + 0 = bp + px + -1xM
aM = bp + px + -1xM

Divide each side by 'M'.
a = bpM-1 + pxM-1 + -1x

Simplifying
a = bpM-1 + pxM-1 + -1x
