Lets solve the equation step by step:

(x + a)/ax = b/x

therefore: a != 0, x !=0

now we solve:

<span>(x + a)/ax = b/x
</span><span>(x + a)/a = b
</span>x + a = ab
x = a(b - 1)

that is the solution for b, and we keep in mind that <span>a != 0, x !=0, the extraneous solutions
</span>

Let's say "m" is the manufactoring cost per drill (in dollars).

Then the manufactorer sells it for $4 more, so this would be:

    m+4

Then the chain store sells it for 140% of the price is paid the manufactorer, so this would be "140% of (m+4)" which translates to "1.4•(m+4)" or more simply:

    1.4(m+4)

P(m) = 1.4(m+4), where m is the initial manufactoring cost (in dollars).

Simplifying, you could rewrite this as:

     P(m) = 1.4m + 5.6
