Answer:

x = 11

Explanation:

3.3(x + 1.2) = 40.26

Distribute the 3.3 across the parentheses.

3.3x + 3.96 = 40.26

Combine the constants by subtracting 3.96 from both sides

3.3x = 36.3

Isolate the variable by dividing both sides by 3.3

x = 11

Check your work by plugging x = 11 into the original equation.

3.3(11 + 1.2) = 40.26

3.3(12.2) = 40.26

40.26 = 40.26

Your answer is correct.

Hope this helps!
