Solve the equation x – 5 = 0.1(x + 5) for x. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

x=6.111....

Step-by-step explanation:

x-5=0.1(x+5)

distribute 0.1 into (x+5)

x-5=0.1x+0.5

subtract 0.1x on both sides

x-0.1x-5=0.5

combine like terms

0.9x-5=0.5

add -5 on both sides

0.9x=5.5

divide both sides by 0.9

x=55/9 or 6.11111.......

step-by-step explanation:

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

24−3x=−27

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

24−3x=−27

24+−3x=−27

−3x+24=−27

step 2: subtract 24 from both sides.

−3x+24−24=−27−24

−3x=−51

step 3: divide both sides by -3.

−3x

−3

=

−51

−3

x=17

answer:

x=17
