Read each question carefully and rearrange the given formula to solve for the indicated variable. Show your work.

1. Rearrange the formula: y = x + 5. Solve for x.

2. Rearrange the formula: A = p * w. Solve for p.

3. Rearrange the formula: d = r * t. Solve for t.

4. To solve for a variable, you need to use operations to isolate the variable on one side of the equation.

5. In the formula P = 4s, if you want to solve for 's', you would both sides by 4.

6. Which operation would you use to isolate 'm' in the formula E = mc²?

Add c²

Subtract c²

Multiply by c²

Divide by c²

7. The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2l + 2w. Rearrange the formula to solve for 'l' (length).

8. To solve for 'b' in the formula a + b = c, you would subtract 'a' from both sides.
