Answer: x can equal -3.2 or -7.4.
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct expression is:
2|x+5.3|=4.2
So, we have an absolute value equation, where it can be positive or negative:
2 (x+5.3)=4.2
2x+10.6 =4.2
2x=4.2-10.6
2x = -6.4
x= -6.4/2
x = -3.2
2[-(x+5.3)]=4.2
-2x-10.6 =4.2
-2x= 4.2+10.6
-2x= 14.8
x= 14.8/-2
x= -7.4
x can equal -3.2 or -7.4.

Step-by-step explanation:
Rewriting the fractions in decimal and whole number, we have the following:


Thus, 42/3 is on 14 and 25/3 is on 8 and then add 1/3 from 8 going to 9.
Therefore, the points must be plotted as follows:
The blue point indicates the 42/3 while the red point indicates the 25/3.
60/100 / 60 are shaded out of the hundred. Simplified would be 3/5. The decimal would be 0.6.
