Answer 1

x = 5

Explanation:

First, to get rid of the fraction, multiply both sides of the equation by x.

— (14.8/x + 2.4) * x = 5.36 * x

— 14.8 + 2.4x = 5.36x

Next, subtract 2.4x from both sides of the equation.

— 14.8 + 2.4x - 2.4x = 5.36x - 2.4x

— 14.8 = 2.96x

Now, divide both sides of the equation by 2.96.

— 14.8/2.96 = 2.96x/2.96

— 5 = x
