8) What value of x will make the equation below true? x-4.3=2.8

7.1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of x that will make the equation true, we need to solve for x. To do this, we need to get x by itself.

x-4.3=2.8

4.3 is being subtracted from x. To "reverse" this, we need to add 4.3 to both sides. We need to add because we need to do the opposite of what is being done to the equation. Addition is the opposite of subtraction.

x-4.3+4.3=2.8+4.3

x=7.1

7.1 is the value of x that will make the equation true
