Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Distribute 2

$$3.4 + 2\times9.7-2\times4.8x=61.2$$ $$3.4 + 19.4-9.6x=61.2$$

Step2: Combine like - terms

$$(3.4 + 19.4)-9.6x=61.2$$ $$22.8-9.6x=61.2$$

Step3: Subtract 22.8 from both sides

$$22.8-22.8-9.6x=61.2 - 22.8$$ $$-9.6x=38.4$$

Step4: Divide both sides by - 9.6

$$x=\frac{38.4}{-9.6}$$

Answer:

B. Distribute 2 to 9.7 and - 4.8x.
C. Combine 3.4 and 19.4.
E. Subtract 22.8 from both sides.
F. Divide both sides by - 9.6.
