Question

Solve the equation 17.25x + 3.89 = 21.14. Give your answer correct to the nearest integer.

Answer 1

The solution to the equation is x = 1

Explanation:

Hi,

We need to isolate the term that contains the variable "x", so we will subtract 3.89.

17.25x + 3.89 - 3.89 = 21.14 - 3.89

We obtain:

17.25x = 17.25

Dividing both sides by 17.25:

x = 1

Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 1.

Good luck!
