Question

1. Solve for x. Show each step of the solution. 4.5(8 - X) + 36 = 102 - 2.5(3x+24) Answer:

Answer 1

Answer:

x= -10

Step-by-step explanation:

       4.5(8 - x) + 36 = 102 - 2.5(3x + 24)

4.5(8) - 4.5(x) + 36 = 102 - 2.5(3x) -2.5(24)

       36 - 4.5x + 36 = 102 - 7.5x - 60

                72 - 4.5x = 102 - 7.5x - 60

                      -4.5x = 102 - 7.5x - 60 - 72

           -4.5x + 7.5x = -30

                           3x =  -30

                             x = -30/3

                             x = -10

Sorry if its wrong, I try my best.
