Question

0.8 x − 1 = 0.6 x + 0.6

Answer 1

X = 8

Explanation:

0.8x - 1 = 0.6x + 0.6

+ 1 = + 1

0.8x = 0.6x + 1.6

- 0.6x = - 0.6x

0.2x = 1.6

0.2x / 0.2 = 1.6 / 0.2

X = 8

Answer 2

Hello!

Answer:

`\Large \boxed{\sf x = 8}`

Explanation:

→ We want to solve this equation:

`\sf 0.8 x- 1 = 0.6 x + 0.6`

◼ Add 1 to both sides:

`\sf 0.8 x- 1 +1= 0.6 x + 0.6 +1`

◼ Simplify both sides:

`\sf 0.8 x= 0.6 x + 1.6`

◼ Subtract 0.6x from both sides:

`\sf 0.8 x-0.6x= 0.6 x + 1.6-0.6x`

◼ Simplify both sides:

`\sf 0.2x= 1.6`

◼ Divide both sides by 0.2:

`\sf (0.2x)/(0.2) = (1.6)/(0.2)`

◼ Simplify both sides:

`\boxed{\sf x = 8}`

Conclusion:

The solution of the equation 0.8x - 1 = 0.6x + 0.6 is 8.
