The answer is 360.Move Variable to the left, Collect like terms, and Divide both sides by 0.2 .

Answer 2

Answer:

x=360

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both sides by 10

x*10=0.8x*10+72*10

Refine

x*10=8x+720

subtract 8x from both sides

x*10-8x=8x+720-8x

simplify

2x=720

Divide both sides by 2

2x/2 = 720/2

Simplify

x=360
