An equation is given below.
4(2x-3) = 0.2(x + 5) + 5.72
The solution to the equation is

x = 2.4

Step-by-step explanation:

4 ( 2x - 3 ) = 0.2 ( x + 5 ) + 5.72

8x - 12 = 0.2x + 1 + 5.72

7.8x = 12 + 1 + 5.72

7.8x = 18.72

x = 2.4

step-by-step explanation:

example 2 – simplify: step 1: completely factor both the numerators and denominators of all fractions. step 2: change the division sign to a multiplication sign and flip (or reciprocate) the fraction after the division sign; essential you need to multiply by the reciprocal. step 3 : cancel or reduce the fractions.
