Solution for x(a-b)=m(x-c) equation:


Simplifying
x(a + -1b) = m(x + -1c)
(a * x + -1b * x) = m(x + -1c)
(ax + -1bx) = m(x + -1c)

Reorder the terms:
ax + -1bx = m(-1c + x)
ax + -1bx = (-1c * m + x * m)
ax + -1bx = (-1cm + mx)

Solving
ax + -1bx = -1cm + mx

Solving for variable 'a'.

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

Add 'bx' to each side of the equation.
ax + -1bx + bx = -1cm + bx + mx

Combine like terms: -1bx + bx = 0
ax + 0 = -1cm + bx + mx
ax = -1cm + bx + mx

Reorder the terms:
ax = bx + -1cm + mx

Divide each side by 'x'.
a = b + -1cmx-1 + m

Simplifying
a = b + -1cmx-1 + m
