Answer:

5

Explanation:

From the expression 2.8x + 6 > 20

we have,

2.8x + 6 = 20,

2.8x + 6 - (20) = 0 ( Moving all terms to the left)

We then add the numbers and variables together,

to get 2.8x + (6-20) = 0

2.8x + (-14) = 0

2.8x - 14 = 0

2.8x = 14 ( Divide both terms by 2.8x)

2.8x/2.8 = 14 /2.8

x = 14 / 2.8

x = 5
