Solve equation 2x-5x+6.3=-14.4?

Question

Solve equation 2x-5x+6.3=-14.4?

Answer 1

-3x = -20.7

x = 6.9

Answer 2

I'm just wondering if you were needing help solving this equation, or if you are one of those annoying people who asks homeschoolers stupid questions to somehow "prove" that public school education is superior.

Answer 3

2x-5x = -14.4 -6.3

you carry the +6.3 over to the other side, it changes from + to -

thus

2x-5x = -20.7

2-5 = -3...thus 2x-5x = -3x

then on both sides you divide by -3

-3x/-3 = -20.7/-3

and thus

x=6.9
