Question

−4.5=−0.5(x−7.1)
Solve for x

Answer 1

$- 4.5 = - 0.5(x - 7.1) \\ \\ = \geqslant - 4.5 = - 0.5x + 3.55 \\ \\ = \geqslant 0.5 = 3.55 + 4.5 \\ \\ = \geqslant 0.5 = 8.05 \\ \\ = \geqslant x = \frac{8.05}{0.5} \\ \\ = \geqslant 16.1$

Answer 2

Answer:

→ X= 16.1

Solution:

→ −4.5=−0.5(x−7.1)

→ −4.5=−0.5x+3.55

→ 0.5x=3.55+4.5

→ 0.5x=8.05

→ x = 8.05/0.5

→ x = 16.1
