First translate the question into an equation.
"What percent" means x/100, "of 40" means times 40, "is 14" equals 14.
So we have (x)(40) = 14 or 40x = 14.
Dividing both sides by 40, we find that x = 0.35.
Now, we want to write our answer as a percent.
So we move the decimal 2 places to the right and we have 35%.
Treat this as an ordinary linear equation. Try to isolate x, as some value. Also remember the basic rules of inequalities: If you're dividing, or multiplying, by a negative, you flip the inequality.

Answer:
(x, y) = (-1, -16) or (3, 0)
Step-by-step explanation:
Perhaps you want to solve the system of equations ...
- y = x^2 +2x -15
- y -4x = -12
Substituting the first expression for y into the second equation gives ...
x^2 +2x -15 -4x = -12
x^2 -2x -3 = 0 . . . . . . . . add 12
(x -3)(x +1) = 0 . . . . . . . factor
Solutions are the values of x that make the factors zero: x = 3, x = -1.
The corresponding values of y are ...
y = -12 +4x
y = -12 +4{-1, 3} = -12 +{-4, 12} = {-16, 0}
The solutions to the system are ...
(x, y) = (-1, -16) or (3, 0)
