=E12-(POWER(D12,2)/C12)

=c12-1

=SQRT(b16/c13)




I want to write the above formulas into one single formula but I keep
getting hung up on subtracting 1 from the cell in c12

How do I get the cell c12 to subtract the value of 1, so that it becomes the
new value in the equation but is not changing the actual value in c12?



Logically:



I have 200 in cell c12 I want to subtract 1 from c12 so that the value for
computation becomes 199 and then I sqrt the value in cell b16/c12-1. The
value in cell c12 remains 200 it does not change I just need to automate
that whatever number is in c12 would be subtracted by 1 during the
computation I'm wanting to do this all in one formula





Help? Any ideas

Hi
Do you mean
=E12-(POWER(D12,2)/(C12-1))

Close, but I need to take the sum from the calculation
=E12-(POWER(D12,2)/(C12)) and then sqrt that divided by (c12-1).
=E12-(POWER(D12,2)/C12)=SQRT(b16/c12-1) . So my question is how do I
combine all this to happen in one line? Rather then generating the product
from =E12-(POWER(D12,2)/(C12)) in one cell and then doing another operation
SQRT(b16/c12-1) in another cell because I have to get that result from the
initial equation and put it into the second equation.

Thanks greatly!!

one way:

=SQRT(E12-(POWER(D12,2)/C12)/(C12-1))


one way to approach this is to enter the intermediate step in another
cell, say J1:

J1: =E12-(POWER(D12,2)/C12)
B16: =SQRT(J1/(C12-1))

Then copy the formula in J1 after the = sign, and paste it into B16 in
place of "J1":

B16: =SQRT(E12-(POWER(D12,2)/C12)/(C12-1))

Thanks, but I'm still stuck?????

=SQRT(E12-(POWER(D12,2)/C12)/(C12-1))
The above result of the above formula does not return the same value as
splitting the operation into two.


=E12-(POWER(D12,2)/C12) --- returns 220
Now, the above returns 220, I need that 220 to complete the second equation.
=SQRT(J1/(C12-1)) --- =sqrt(220/199)
j1=220
c12=200

So, How do I combine the result that is being generated in j1 into the
equation in the cell j1 to be all on the same line, rather then two lines.

What do you mean "combine the result...in j1 into the equation in the
cell j1"? If the result is already in j1, what are you trying to
accomplish?
