Simplifying 4.4s + 6.2 = 8.8s + - 1.8 Reorder the terms: 6.2 + 4.4s = 8.8s + - 1.8 Reorder the terms: 6.2 + 4.4s = - 1.8 + 8.8s

Solving 6.2 + 4.4s = - 1.8 + 8.8s Solving for variable 's'. Move all terms containing s to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-8.8s' to each side of the equation. 6.2 + 4.4s + - 8.8s = - 1.8 + 8.8s + - 8.8s Combine like terms: 4.4s + - 8.8s = - 4.4s 6.2 + - 4.4s = - 1.8 + 8.8s + - 8.8s Combine like terms: 8.8s + - 8.8s = 0.0 6.2 + - 4.4s = - 1.8 + 0.0 6.2 + - 4.4s = - 1.8 Add '-6.2' to each side of the equation. 6.2 + - 6.2 + - 4.4s = - 1.8 + - 6.2 Combine like terms: 6.2 + - 6.2 = 0.0 0.0 + - 4.4s = - 1.8 + - 6.2 - 4.4s = - 1.8 + - 6.2 Combine like terms: - 1.8 + - 6.2 = - 8 - 4.4s = - 8 Divide each side by '-4.4'. s = 1.818181818
