Answer:

x = -0.14

Explanation:

Given that:

6(4x+5)=3(x+8)+3

By simplifying:

24x + 30 = 3x + 24 +3

Taking terms with x to left side and others on right side

Sign will be changed when transferring term from one side to other

24x - 3x= 24 + 3 -30

21x = 27 - 30

21x = -3

x= -3/21

x= - 0.142857...

By rounding off to nearest hundredth

  • As the third decimal place (2) is smaller than 5
  • Previous digit will remain same so,

x = -0.14

I hope it will help you!
