Answer:


\begin{gathered} \text{ Divide each side by 6.8} \\ x=5 \end{gathered}

Explanation:

For the following equation, use inverse operations to solve equations.

Remember that addition and subtraction are inverse operations, such as multiplication and division.

Therefore,


\begin{gathered} \text{ Divide each side by 6.8:} \\ (6.8)/(6.8)x=(34)/(6.8) \\ x=5 \end{gathered}
