Answer:

F. 28

Explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

0.8x - 12 = 0.3x + 2

Step 2: Solve for x

Subtract 0.3x on both sides: 0.5x - 12 = 2

Add 12 to both sides: 0.5x = 14

Divide both sides by 0.5: x = 28

Step 3: Check

Plug in x to verify it's a solution.

0.8(28) - 12 = 0.3(28) + 2

22.4 - 12 = 8.4 + 2

10.4 = 10.4
