Answer: Substitute the values given. The equation is a + 42 = b. Since a = -16 and b = 26, the equation will become -16 + 42 = 26. This equation holds true so it is correct.

--Percent means out of 100, so 20% = 20/100
The prob in other words is asking
-- $60 is 20% of what number?
'$60' -- ---> 60
'is' -- ---> =
20% -- ---> 20/100
'of' -- ---> * (multiply)
'what number' ---> x (variable)
No,because a multiplcative inverse is when your changing a division or multiplcation sign!
