Answer:

53

To find:

x

Explanation:

0.3x+5.14=2.1x – 4.4

0.3x-2.1x=-4.4-5.14

-1.8x=-9.54

x=-9.54/-1.8

To remove the decimal point, multiply with 100 on both numerator and denominator as their are two digits after the decimal point

x=-9.54 × 100/-1.8 × 100

therefore you will get,

x=-954/-180

cut the negative sign from both numerator and denominator

x=954/180

x=53

hope it helps you!!
