Question

question 1 3.4 class practice
3.7x - 32 = 6x + 26
4.7x = 6x + 58
5.x = 58
definition of congruent segments
subtraction property of equality
substitution property of equality

Explanation:

Step1: Add 32 to both sides

$3.7x-32 + 32=6x + 26+32$
$3.7x=6x + 58$

Step2: Subtract 6x from both sides

$3.7x-6x=6x + 58-6x$
$- 2.3x=58$

Step3: Solve for x

$x=\frac{58}{-2.3}=-\frac{580}{23}\approx - 25.22$

Answer:

$x =-\frac{580}{23}$
