Question

What is the value of d?



−5.5(d−2)=−12.1

Answer 1

answer:
`d = 4.2`

Step-by-step explanation:

`-5.5(d-2)=-12.1` | distribute the -5.5 into the parentheses

`-5.5d + 11 = -12.1` | subtract 11 and move it over to -12.1

`-5.5d = -23.1` | divide by -5.5

`d = 4.2` | final answer

Answer 2

-5.5(d - 2) = -12.1

-5.5d + 11.0 = -12.1 distributed -5.5 on the left side

-11.0 -11.0

-5.5d = -23.1

`(-5.5d)/(-5.5) = (-23.1)/(-5.5)`

d = 4.2

Answer: d = 4.2
