Solve 0.75x+0.5(1.6)=2

$$0.75 x + 0.5 ( 1.6 ) = 2$$

Solve for x

$$x=1.6$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply 0.5 and 1.6 to get 0.8.

$$0.75x+0.8=2$$

Subtract 0.8 from both sides.

$$0.75x=2-0.8$$

Subtract 0.8 from 2 to get 1.2.

$$0.75x=1.2$$

Divide both sides by 0.75.

$$x=\frac{1.2}{0.75}$$

Expand \frac{1.2}{0.75} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 100.

$$x=\frac{120}{75}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{120}{75} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 15.

$$x=\frac{8}{5}$$
