6.7x = 5.2x + 12.3

How to solve

x = 8.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

6.7x = 5.2x + 12.3 (subtract 5.2x from both sides)

1.5x = 12.3 (divide both sides by 1.5)

x = 8.2

8.2

Step-by-step explanation:

you can solve it by changing it to standard form

Thus, 67*10^-1x = 52*10^-1x + 123*10^-1

group like terms.

67*10^-1x - 52*10^-1x = 123*10^-1

15*10^-1x = 123*10^-1

divide through by 15 * 10^-1

X = 123*10^-1/15*10^-1

X=41/5

X=8.2
