Answer:

x =0.59

Explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4x−(−7x+4.3)−1.6=x

4x+7x+−4.3+−1.6=x

(4x+7x)+(−4.3+−1.6)=x(Combine Like Terms)

11x+−5.9=x

11x−5.9=x

Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.

11x−5.9−x=x−x

10x−5.9=0

Step 3: Add 5.9 to both sides.

10x−5.9+5.9=0+5.9

10x=5.9

Step 4: Divide both sides by 10.

10x/10 = 5.9/10

x =0.59

4x+7x-4.3-1.6=x

11x-x=5.9

x=5.9/10=0.59 is your answer
