Answer:
x = -0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
From your last step:
6.8x + 9.3 = -2.6 - 17x
We have two terms with x in them on different sides of the equation, so we want to bring the 'x terms' over to the same side.
Add 17x to both sides of the equation.
6.8x + 17x + 9.3 = -2.6
Collect like terms
23.8x + 9.3 = -2.6
Subtract 9.3 from both sides
23.8x = -2.6 - 9.3
23.8x = -11.9
Divide both sides by 23.8
x = -0.5
