The sentence "15% of 4x is 20 less than x"
translates to 0.15 • (4x) = x – 20
Solving that…
0.15(4x) = x - 20 multiplipy 0.15•4
0.6x = x - 20 subtract x from both sides
-0.4x = - 20 divide both sides by -0.4
x = 50
I believe the projected amount is 129.5 billion.
Y less than 21 = 21 - y
Remember, "less than" indicates a subtraction with the terms in inverted order.
Hope I helped!
