Answer 2

Answer:

x=2.8

Step-by-step explanation:

7x + 3 = 10x - 5.4

(first, put x's on your left side, and normal numbers on right side, watch out for changing sign in front of the numbers)

7x - 10x = -3 -5.4

(subtract/add up the numbers)

-3x = - 8.4

(divide whole equation with -3 (which is in front of x)

x = 2.8
