Math & Science ⇒ centered equation with constraints at right edge

[jj39]

I would like to display a single equation in the format

(equation -- centered) (a>1)

That is, the equation is centered as usual, but there is
a second bit of math presented so that its right edge aligns
with the right edge of text on the page.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Hi,

it's a rather unusual layout, but you can try something like this:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}

\begin{document}

text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text
text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text
text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text
{\setlength\multlinegap{0pt}
\begin{multline*}
  \phantom{\ }\\[-\baselineskip]
  a=b+c\\
  \shoveright{+d+e+f.}\\
\end{multline*}}

\end{document}

\begin{document}
\rule{\linewidth}{1pt}

\begin{align}
(equation & centered) \tag{a>1}

Yes: I don't know why I assumed that the OP wanted the non-centered expression to appear on a different line.
