Solve 6+2.4(x-3)=30

$$6 + 2.4 ( x - 3 ) = 30$$

Solve for x

$$x=13$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Use the distributive property to multiply 2.4 by x-3.

$$6+2.4x-7.2=30$$

Subtract 7.2 from 6 to get -1.2.

$$-1.2+2.4x=30$$

Add 1.2 to both sides.

$$2.4x=30+1.2$$

Add 30 and 1.2 to get 31.2.

$$2.4x=31.2$$

Divide both sides by 2.4.

$$x=\frac{31.2}{2.4}$$

Expand \frac{31.2}{2.4} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.

$$x=\frac{312}{24}$$

Divide 312 by 24 to get 13.

$$x=13$$
