Answer:

0.74

Explanation:

We can isolate x, getting 9.2x - 1.9x = -1 + 6.4

We can then simplify, getting 7.3x = 5.4, which we can solve by dividing both sides by 7.3:

x = 5.4 / 7.3 = 0.74

Answer:

x=0.739726

Explanation:

subtract 9.2x on both sides

-1+1.9x-9.2x=-6.4

combine like terms

1.9x-9.2x=-7.3x

-1-7.3x=-6.4

add -1 on both sides

-7.3x=-6.4+1

-7.3x=-5.4

divide both sides by -7.3

x=0.739726...

hope this helps
