Solve for x in the equation 811(x+45)=2455

Answer 1

To solve for x, first distribute the 811 on the left side:
811(x+45) = 2455
811x + 36895 = 2455

Then subtract 36895 from both sides of the equation:

811x = 2455 - 36895
811x = -34440

Now divide by 811 on both sides to isolate x:

x = -34440 / 811
x ≈ -42.45

Therefore, the solution for x is approximately -42.45.
