Answer 1

Hello from the other sideeeeee
X= 6

Answer 2

Hey!

-----------------------------------------------

Steps To Solve:

4.6(x - 3) = -0.4x + 16.2

~Distributive property

4.6x - 13.8 = -0.4x + 16.2

~Add 0.4 to both sides

4.6x - 13.8 + 0.4= -0.4x + 16.2 + 0.4

~Simplify

5x - 13.8 = 16.2

~Add 13.8 to both sides

5x - 13.8 + 13.8 = 16.2 + 13.8

~Simplify

5x = 30

Divide 5 to both sides

5x/5 = 30/5

~Simplify

x = 6
