Question

3.3-×=3(x-1.7) I need help on this

Answer 1

So as before:
do the same to both sides
with one unknown, get it on  one side so

3.3-x=3(x-1.7)
so distribute meaning multiply x and -1.7 by 3 (remember that negative times positive =negative)

3.3-x=3x-5.1
I usually like positive unknowns so
add x to both sides
3.3=4x-5.1
add 5.1 to both sides
8.4=4x
divide both sides by 4
2.1=x

Answer 2

3.3- x = 3( x-1.7) 3.3 - x = 3x - 5.1 8.4=3x+x 8.4=4x 8.4/4=x x=2.1
