We are given this equation and I'm assuming you want us to solve for x
Use the distributive property on the left side of the equation
Subtract both sides by 6x
After trying to solve for x, we have this weird equation. Since -3 does NOT equal 5 and there is no other way for us to try and solve this, the equation has no solution.
Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!

Answer:
7. 25% of the merchants who purchase goods from Asia also purchase from Europe.
Step-by-step explanation:
I am going to say that:
A is the percentage of merchants who purchase goods from Asia.
B is the percentage of merchants who purchase goods from Europe.
We have that:
In which a is the probability that a merchant purchases goods from Asia but not from Europe and is the probability that a merchant purchases goods from both Asia and Europe.
By the same logic, we have that:
Which of following statement is individually sufficient to calculate what percent of the merchants in the group purchase goods from Europe but not form Asia?
We already have B.
Knowing , that is, the percentage of those who purchase from both Asia and Europe, we can find b.
So the correct answer is:
7. 25% of the merchants who purchase goods from Asia also purchase from Europe.
