The fraction for this would be 42
The percentage will be 42.85714285%
Sounds like rearranging to me:
P=2(a+b) -- expand brackets
P=2a+2b -- subtract 2a
P-2a=2b -- divide by 2
b=(P-2a)/2
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given Equation:</u>
x/5 + 6 = -14
Subtract 6 to both sides
x/5 = -14 - 6
x/5 = -20
Multiply 5 to both sides
x = -20 × 5
x = -100

Equation: 4x + 7 = 3(2x - 5)
Step-by-step solution:
• Expand brackets
-> 4x + 7 = 6x - 15
• Move x variable to a side and the numbers to another
-> 4x - 6x = -15 - 7
• Solve
-> -2x = -22
• Multiply both sides by (-1)
-> -(-2x) = -(-22)
-> 2x = 22
• Divide both sides by 2
-> x = 22/2
-> x = 11
• Justification
-> Put x = 11 in original equation
-> 4(11) + 7 = 3( 2(11) - 5)
-> 44 + 7 = 3(22 - 5)
-> 51 = 3(17)
-> 51 = 51
-> 51 - 51 = 0
-> 0 = 0
Since both sides are equal to each other, the answer to the equation is correct.
I don't know Sam's equation so I'm not gonna answer that.
