<span>2a(5-b)=3b+7
<em>[open bracket]</em>
10a - 2ab = 3b + 7
<em>[solve for b, so we need to move all terms with b to the left]</em>
<em>[-3b on both sides]</em>
10a - 2ab - 3b = 3b + 7 - 3b
10a - 2ab - 3b = 7
<em>[move all those without b to the right]</em>
<em>[-10a on both side]</em>
10a - 2ab- 3b - 10a = 7 - 10a
-2ab - 3b = 7 - 10a
<em>[divide by -1 through to change b to be positive]</em>
2ab + 3b = 10a - 7
<em>[take b out as the common factor]</em>

Lara can read 10 chapters in 4 hours.
At this rate, she can read half that many chapters in half the time.
So she reads 5 chapters in 2 hours.
So Lara reads 10 chapters in 4 hours,
+ 10 chapters in 4 more hours,
+ 5 chapters in 2 more hours.
That's 25 chapters in total, and 10 hours in total, ya? :)
