0.7(3x−0.2)=0.3(0.8−2x) URGENT 20 Points! Please Help!!!

Answer 1

Answer:

x = .140741

Step-by-step explanation:

0.7(3x−0.2)=0.3(0.8−2x)

Distribute

.7 * 3x - .7*.2 = .3*.8 - .3 * 2x

2.1x - .14 = .24 - .6x

Add .6x to each side

2.1x +.6x -.14 = .24 -.6x+.6x

2.7x -.14 = .24

Add .14 to each side

2.7x -.14+.14 = .24+.14

2.7x = .38

Divide by 2.7 on each side

2.7x/2.7 = .38/2.7

x = .140741
