Question

Solve the equation

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

.20x + .68(120 - x) = .54(120) (Distribute .68 to 120 and -x)

.20x + 81.6 - .68x = .54(120) (multiply .54 and 120)

.20x + 81.6 - .68x = 69.6 ( add .20x and -.68x)

-.48x + 81.6 = 69.6 ( subtract 81.6 on each side)

-.48x = -12 (divide -12 by -.48)

x = 25
