Splve for x. - 1.4x = 4 (x + 2.18)

-1.61481

Step-by-step explanation:

-1.4x = 4 (x + 2.18)

Pemdas

get rid of parentheses

-1.4x = 4x + 8.72

then subtract from both sides to get x's on the same side

-1.4x-4x=4x+8.72-4x

positive 4x and negative 4x cancel each other out and put the x['s on the left side together so - 5.4x

-5.4x=8.72

divide - 5.4 from both

-5.4x/-5.4 = 8.72/-5.4

x=-1.61481 or round up to two

X=-218/135 Or x=1.61481
