Question

Solve this equation.
3.5(2.25 + x) = 14

Answer 1

Answer:

3.5(2.25+x)   = 14

7.875 + 3.5 x = 14

3.5 x = 14 - 7.875

3.5 x = 6.125

x = 6. 125 / 3.5

x = 1.75

Answer 2

Answer:

1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

3.5[2.25+x]=14

3.5*2.25+3.5*x=14

7.875+3.5x=14

3.5x=14-7.875

3.5x=6.125

x=1.75
