Answer:
19
----- = x
40-3a
Step-by-step explanation:
3(ax + 9) = -4 (-2 - 10x)
Distribute
3ax +27 = 8+40x
Subtract 3ax from each side
3ax-3ax +27 = 8+40x-3ax
27 = = 8+40x-3ax
Subtract 8 from each side
27-8 = 8-8+40x-3ax
19 = 40x-3ax
Factor an x on the right side
19 = x(40-3a)
Divide each side by 40-3a
19/(40-3a) = x(40-3a)/(40-3a)
19
----- = x
40-3a
Answer: 40%
