Answer:
x=0.2 to the nearest tenth
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is
[tex]5-(58x+19)=(9-48x)*18[/tex]
We apply the distributive property to get:
[tex]5-58x-19=9*18-48x*18[/tex]
[tex]5-58x-19=162-864x[/tex]
We group similar terms to get:
[tex]864x-58x=162+14[/tex]
[tex]806x=176[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{176}{806}[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{88}{403}[/tex]
x=0.2 to the nearest tenth
