Distribute the 3.09. So multiply 3.09(x) and 3.09(-6.91)

anonymous · Answer

So now you should have 3.09x-21.35=24.95

skullpatrol · Answer

@Jelia97  have you  rounded the constants and coefficients in the equation to the nearest integer?

skullpatrol · Answer

@kayla_b_stephens  please  round the constants and coefficients in the equation to the nearest integer $$\huge 3.09(x – 6.91) = 24.95$$
