Answer: [tex]a=\frac{b}{zm-1}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's first multiply both sides by m to get rid of the denominator.
[tex]za=\frac{a+b}{m}\\zam=a+b[/tex]
Now, we have an a on both sides of the equation. It will be easier to solve if there is only one, so let's divide both sides by a.
[tex]\frac{zam}{a}=\frac{a+b}{a}\\zm=\frac{a}{a}+\frac{b}{a}\\zm=1+\frac{b}{a}[/tex]
The 1 on the right can be moved to the left to isolate the fraction.
[tex]zm-1=\frac{b}{a}[/tex]
We want to get a by itself, so let's multiply it on both sides to remove it from the denominator.
[tex]a(zm-1)=b[/tex]
Finally, we can divide zm-1 from both sides to get a by itself.
[tex]a=\frac{b}{zm-1}[/tex]
