Answer:

4x - 2.6 = 3x + 8.1 x=10.7

Explanation:

Step 1:

Subtract 3x on both sides.

4x-3x

3x-3x

*because 3x-3x equals 0, it no longer exists in the equation*

Step 2:

Add 2.6 to both sides.

-2.6 +2.6

8.1 +2.6

*because -2.6 +2.6 equals 0, it no longer exists in the equation*

Step 3:

Put it all together.

1x=10.7

*Since 1x and x are the same thing, x=10.7*
