Right on, Steve!

To solve for x in the equation 6.78x - 5.2 = 4.33x + 2.15, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation.

First, let's gather all the x terms on one side and the constant terms on the other side.

Starting with the given equation:

6.78x - 5.2 = 4.33x + 2.15

We can subtract 4.33x from both sides:

6.78x - 4.33x - 5.2 = 4.33x - 4.33x + 2.15

Simplifying, we have:

2.45x - 5.2 = 2.15

Next, let's isolate 2.45x by adding 5.2 to both sides of the equation:

2.45x - 5.2 + 5.2 = 2.15 + 5.2

This simplifies to:

2.45x = 7.35

To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 2.45:

(2.45x)/2.45 = 7.35/2.45

This further simplifies to:

x = 3

Therefore, the solution to the equation 6.78x - 5.2 = 4.33x + 2.15 is x = 3.

bye bye - if you have trouble working a problem, rather than just hoping someone will do your entire assignment, come on back and show how far you get. Then you will get some help. Stop whining and get to work.
