0.9x+2.3x = -6.4 Find x on both sides of the problem, a little confused... Would we combine the like terms on the left side?

Answer:

-2

Explanation:

0.9x+2.3x = -6.4

Add the two values of the left side of the equation together

3.2x = -6.4

Divide both sides of the equation by 3.2

x = -6.4 / 3.2

x = -2
