Question

6.7x = 5.2x + 12.3
How to solve

Answer 1

8.2

Explanation:

you can solve it by changing it to standard form

Thus, 67×10^-1x =52×10^-1x +123×10^-1

group like terms.

67×10^-1x -52×10^-1x =123×10^-1

15×10^-1x =123×10^-1

divide through by 15 ×10^-1

X= 123×10^-1/15×10^-1

X=41/5

X=8.2

Answer 2

x = 8.2

Explanation:

Given

6.7x = 5.2x + 12.3 ( subtract 5.2x from both sides )

1.5x = 12.3 ( divide both sides by 1.5 )

x = 8.2
