a. 6.0x = 6.6
b. 0.6x = 6.6
c. 6.0x = −6.6
d. 0.6x = −6.6

Answer 1

Explanation:

3.3x - 2.7x = 6.6

0.6x = 6.6

answer is B

answer is also 11

Answer 2

3.3x − 6.6 = 2.7x ⇔ 0.6x = 6.6

B is correct

Explanation:

The equation 3.3x − 6.6 = 2.7x can be transformed to another form.

Given

3.3x − 6.6 = 2.7x

Move all variable same side. using subtraction property of equality

subtract 2.7x both sides

3.3x -2.7x − 6.6 = 0

0.6x - 6.6 = 0

Addition property of equality

0.6x = 6.6

Hence, The equivalent equation is 0.6x = 6.6
