    A. x=y(z-rw)

    B. x=rw(y-z)

    C. x=w(z+ry)

    D. x=rwy-z

    Answer Explanation

    The question requires us we make x the subject of the formula.

    First, we subtract rw to both sides of the equation

    Multiply both sides by y

    Thus, the formula for finding the value of x is y(z-rw).
