Algebra.Com's Answer #6859 by LilSkittleMd(119) ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The first thing you need to do with this equation is to get the x's on one side of the equation and the other numbers on the other side of the equation. \n" ); document.write( "28-2.2x=11.6x+262.6 \n" ); document.write( "First add 2.2x to both sides of the equation. This will cancel out on one side \n" ); document.write( "28=13.8x+262.6 \n" ); document.write( "Subtract 262.6 from both sides to get x by itself \n" ); document.write( "-234.6=13.8x \n" ); document.write( "Now divide each side by 13.8 to find the value of x \n" ); document.write( "-17=x \n" ); document.write( "The value of x is equal to -17 \n" ); document.write( " |
