102.5(x−11.92)=71.6
distribute the 102.5 on the left side:
102.5x - 1312 = 71.6
Add 1312 to both sides:
102.5x = 1383.6
Divide both sides by 102.5:
x = 13.502
Rounded to 3 decimal places, x is approximately 13.502.
wrong
I apologize for the error. Let's solve the equation correctly.
102.5(x - 11.92) = 71.6
Distribute 102.5 on the left side:
102.5x - (102.5)(11.92) = 71.6
102.5x - 1219 = 71.6
Add 1219 to both sides:
102.5x = 1290.6
Divide both sides by 102.5:
x = 12.605
Rounded to 3 decimal places, x is approximately 12.605.
