Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You start off by rewriting the equation:
[tex]2(x-7)=0.2(x+2)+5.11\\[/tex]
Then you have to factor:
[tex]2x-14=0.2x+0.4+5.11[/tex]
Then you subtract the 0.2x:
[tex]1.8x-14=0.4+5.11[/tex]
Add the positives on the right:
[tex]1.8x-14=5.51[/tex]
Add 14:
[tex]1.8x=19.51[/tex]
Divide:
[tex]x=10.84[/tex]
You get x is approximately equal to 10.84
