If x+y over 2 = 3x-p over 4, find a formula for x
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x%2By%29%2F2\" = \"%283x-p%29%2F4\"
\n" ); document.write( "cross multiply
\n" ); document.write( "2(3x-p) = 4(x+y)
\n" ); document.write( "6x - 2p = 4x + 4y
\n" ); document.write( "6x - 4x = 4y + 2p
\n" ); document.write( "2x = 4y + 2p
\n" ); document.write( "Divide by 2
\n" ); document.write( "x = 2y + p
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
