Question

Which of the following is the solution to the equation x + 8.6 = 36.2? (3 points)


10.4

17.2

27.6

44.8

Answer 1

Get x by itself so subtract 8.6 from both sides.

Answer 2

\[x+8.6=36.2\]\[x+8.6-8.6=36.2-8.6\]\[x\cancel{+8.6}\cancel{-8.6}=36.2-8.6\]\[x+0=36.2-8.6\]\[x=36.2-8.6\]

Answer 3

27.6 is the answer
right?
