Can anyone actually show me this step as I am completely thrown. I just can't make sense of it.

Completely*

Ok I've done what you have said and got- t'=(x+γ(γx-γvt))/γv Now I am competent lost

X' I think. Sorry if I sound a bit stupid. I'm in my first year and this is only my second question.

Sorry vt' Do you know the second part or even where I should start?

Question Suppose an inertial frame of reference S’ moves at a constant velocity v in the positive x-direction with respect to a second inertial frame S. The Lorentz transformation from S to S’ for the x coordinate of displacement is given by: x′ =γ (x − vt) Write down a corresponding...
