Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
8.88=4.44(x−7)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
8.88=4.44(x−7)
8.88=(4.44)(x)+(4.44)(−7)(Distribute)
8.88=4.44x+−31.08
8.88=4.44x−31.08
Step 2: Flip the equation.
4.44x−31.08=8.88
Step 3: Add 31.08 to both sides.
4.44x−31.08+31.08=8.88+31.08
4.44x=39.96
Step 4: Divide both sides by 4.44.
#2
= y = -3
