Answer» Given 0.6x + 4/5 = 0.28x + 1.16 Transposing 0.28x to LHS and 45 to RHS, we get 0.6x – 0.28x = 1.16 – 45 0.32x = 1.16 – 0.8 0.32x = 0.36 Dividing both sides by 0.32, we get 0.32 x 0.32 = 0.360.32 x = 9/8 Verification: Substituting x = 9/8 on both sides, we get 0.6(9/8) + 45 = 0.28(9/8) + 1.16 5.4/8 + 4/5 = 2.52/8 + 1.16 0.675 + 0.8 = 0.315 + 1.16 1.475 = 1.475 Thus LHS = RHS Hence, verified. |
