Divide both sides by 9.
To solve for x in the equation 10.25(x-4.4)=69.7, you can follow these steps:
1. Distribute 10.25 to the terms inside the parentheses:
10.25x - 44.5 = 69.7
2. Add 44.5 to both sides of the equation to isolate the variable term:
10.25x = 114.2
3. Divide both sides of the equation by 10.25 to solve for x:
x = 11.2
Therefore, the solution for x in the given equation is 11.2.

To solve for p in the equation −16.284(p−14.27)=56.994, you can follow these steps:
1. Distribute −16.284 to the terms inside the parentheses:
−16.284p + 232.3527 = 56.994
2. Subtract 232.3527 from both sides of the equation to isolate the variable term:
−16.284p = −175.3573
3. Divide both sides of the equation by −16.284 to solve for p:
p ≈ 10.8
Therefore, the solution for p in the given equation is approximately 10.8.
