Answer 1

Option C is correct.

Explanation:

• 
  `- 2x + 4.4 = 23.8`
• 
  `- 2x = 23.8 - 4.4`
• 
  `- 2x = 19.4`
• 
  `x = - (19.4)/(4.4)`
• 
  `x = - 9.7`

Hope it is helpful.....

Answer 2

-2x + 4.4 = 23.8

Subtract 4.4 from both sides

-2x = 19.4

Divide both sides by-2:

X = -9.7

Answer: C. -9.7
