Answer:


s=5.1

Explanation:

We have been given an equation
0.7(3s+4)-1.1s=7.9. We are supposed to solve the given equation.

Using distributive property
a(b+c)=ab+ac, we will get:


0.7(3s)+0.7(4)-1.1s=7.9


2.1s+2.8-1.1s=7.9


2.1s-1.1s+2.8=7.9


1.0s+2.8=7.9


s+2.8-2.8=7.9-2.8


s=5.1

Therefore, the solution for the given equation is
s=5.1.
