Explanation:


\tt{30.16 = 17.56 + 5x}

Swap the sides of the equation :


\tt{17.56 + 5x = 30.16}

We want to remove the 17.56 first.

Since the original equation is 17.56 , we are going to use the opposite operation and subtract 17.56 from both sides :


\tt{5x + 17.56 - 17.56 = 30.16 - 17.56}

Simplify. 17.56 - 17.56 = 0 on the left. 30.16 - 17.36 = 12.6 on the right.


\tt{5x = 12.6}

Then, we need to think about how to remove the coefficient 5. Since the opposite of multiplication is division , I am going to divide both sides by 5.


\tt{ (5x)/(5) = (12.6)/(5)}

Simplify. 5/5 = 1 on the left and 12.6/5 = 2.52 on the right. So, Our answer is x = 2.52.


\pink{ \boxed{ \boxed { \tt{Our \: final \: answer : \underline{ \underline{ \bold{ \tt{x = 2.52}}}}}}}}

Hope I helped ! ♡

Have a wonderful day / night ! ツ
