5.3x+2-4.1x=3.6x-1.6
My answer x=1.5
Why not sub x = 1.5 into the left side
and then into the right side.
Did you get the same result?
If so, then you were correct, if not ....
1.5 is correct thanks
To solve the given equation, you can start by collecting the like terms on both sides of the equation.
5.3x - 4.1x - 3.6x = 1.6 + 2 - 1
Now, combine the x terms and the constant terms:
-2.4x = 1.6 + 2 - 1
Combine the constant terms on the right side:
-2.4x = 2.6
Next, divide both sides of the equation by -2.4 to isolate the x variable:
x = 2.6 / -2.4
Finally, simplify the division:
x ≈ -1.0833
So, it appears that the correct answer for x is approximately -1.0833, which is different from the answer you provided. Please double-check your calculations to ensure accuracy.
