No you have to make sure to line up the decimals when subtracting them. Do not just line of the numbers, this wills get you the wrong answers. Hope this helps. If you need anything else just call for a helping hand.
You gave no options but the simplest way to solve this is to set it equal to all of the answers to see if it is correct.
Answer:
X =30/7
Step-by-step explanation:
The first way would be something like:
-7x + 10 = -20. The first thing we would do is to subtract 10 from both sides.
Therefore,
-7x+10-10=-20-10
Simplified, we get
-7x=-30
Remove the negative symbols
7x =30
x=30/7
Second example:
10=7x - 20
Add 20 to both sides.
10+20=7x-20+20
Simplified,
30=7x
x = 30/7
40.8 ÷ 69.9 = 0.5836909871
58%
