PLEASE HELP

For the equations below, determine which step would be easiest to do first, dividing or distributing. Then solve each equation.

2,000(x - 0.03) = 6,000

2(x + 1.25) = 3.5

¼(4 + x) = 1 ⅓

-10(x - 1.7) = -3

5.4 = 0.3(x + 8)

Answer:

Dividing

x=3.03

Explanation:

Dividing gets us smaller numbers and makes it easier to work with

2,000(x - 0.03)/2,000 = 6,000/2,000

x-0.03=3

x=3+0.03

x=3.03
