a line segment in the correct answer
Answer: x + 12 = 3x + -22
12 + x = 3x + -22
Reorder the terms:
12 + x = -22 + 3x
Solving
12 + x = -22 + 3x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.
12 + x + -3x = -22 + 3x + -3x
Combine like terms: x + -3x = -2x
12 + -2x = -22 + 3x + -3x
Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0
12 + -2x = -22 + 0
12 + -2x = -22
Add '-12' to each side of the equation.
12 + -12 + -2x = -22 + -12
Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0
0 + -2x = -22 + -12
-2x = -22 + -12
Combine like terms: -22 + -12 = -34
-2x = -34
Divide each side by '-2'.
x = 17
Simplifying
x = 17
Well 3/8 is .375 but times 100 is 37.5%
Then 37.5% of 800 is 300
