Question

The equation 1.6x − 2.2 = 1.4x can be transformed to form which of the following expressions? 3.0x = 2.2 0.2x = −2.2 3.0x = −2.2 0.2x = 2.2

Answer 1

Answer:

Option 4th is correct

$0.2x =2.2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation:

$1.6x-2.2=1.4x$

Add 2.2 to both sides we have;

$1.6x=1.4x+2.2$

Subtract 1.4x from both sides we have;

$1.6x-1.4x=1.4x+2.2-1.4x$

Simplify:

$0.2x =2.2$

Therefore, The equation 1.6x − 2.2 = 1.4x can be transformed to form $0.2x =2.2$

Answer 2

1.6x - 2.2 = 1.4x
1.6x - 1.4x = 2.2
0.2x = 2.2
