12 is 20% of 60 because 12/60 = 0.2.
4n - 7 = 29
That's the equation :)
You can use any variable; doesn't have to be n.
If you want to solve for the variable, then it would be 5.5
First we have to distribute the parentheses on the left side, 2*x is 2x and 2*-3 is -6, so now the equation is 4x+2x-6 = 8x+12
Then, we can add together the two x's on the left side,
so now we have 6x-6 = 8x+12 Subtract 12 from both sides and
you get 6x -18 = 8x Then you can subtract 6x from both the sides and get
-18 = 2x Now we can divide both sides by 2, and the final answer is -9 = x
Since they are not the same and the two sides aren't unequal, there is one solution(:
Hope this is helping you(:
