Question

60 + $50.45 x equals $57 .95 cents x

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step would be to move all terms with x to one side of the equation:

60 + 50.45x = 57.95x --> 60 + 50.45x - 50.45x = 57.95x - 50.45x -->

60 = 7.50x

The last step to obtain x is to divide both sides by the coefficient of (number next to) x:

60/7.50 = 7.50x/7.50 --> 8 = x
