Solve 4.8x-3.7=5.02-2.8x

$$4.8 x - 3.7 = 5.02 - 2.8 x$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{109}{95} = 1\frac{14}{95} \approx 1.147368421$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Add 2.8x to both sides.

$$4.8x-3.7+2.8x=5.02$$

Combine 4.8x and 2.8x to get 7.6x.

$$7.6x-3.7=5.02$$

Add 3.7 to both sides.

$$7.6x=5.02+3.7$$

Add 5.02 and 3.7 to get 8.72.

$$7.6x=8.72$$

Divide both sides by 7.6.

$$x=\frac{8.72}{7.6}$$

Expand \frac{8.72}{7.6} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 100.

$$x=\frac{872}{760}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{872}{760} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 8.

$$x=\frac{109}{95}$$
