Question

-(2x + 5.9) +8.3 = 4+3(-x+ 2.8)

Answer 1

x =10

Explanation:

Equation

-(2x + 5.9) +8.3 = 4+3(-x+ 2.8) Carefully remove both sets of brackets

Solution

-2x - 5.9 + 8.3 = 4 + -3x + 8.4 Combine like terms on both sides

-2x + 2.4 = -3x + 12.4 Add 3x to both sides

-2x+3x + 2.4 = -3x+3x + 12.4 Combine

x + 2.4 = 12.4 Subtract 2.4 from both sides

x + 2.4 - 2.4 = 12.4 - 2.4 Combine

x = 10
