Question

Solve the two-step equation.

Answer 1

Answer:

• $\boxed{\sf{x=-0.15}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the term of x from one side of the equation.

34(x)-1.72=-6.82

Rewrite the problem down.

⇒ 34x-1.72=-6.82

First, add by 1.72 from both sides.

⇒ 34x-1.72+1.72=-6.82+1.72

Solve.

⇒ -6.82+1.72=-5.1

Rewrite the problem down.

⇒ 34x=-5.1

Divide by 34 from both sides.

⇒34x/34=-5.1/34

Solve.

Divide the numbers from left to right.

⇒ -5.1/34=-0.15

⇒ x=-0.15

• Therefore, the solution is x=-0.15, which is our answer.
