3 answers

To solve the equation 102.5(x - 11.92) = 71.6, we can start by distributing the 102.5 to the terms inside the parentheses:

102.5x - 102.5 * 11.92 = 71.6

Simplifying this equation gives:

102.5x - 1219.9 = 71.6

Next, we can isolate the term with x by moving the constant term to the opposite side of the equation:

102.5x = 71.6 + 1219.9

102.5x = 1291.5

Finally, we can solve for x by dividing both sides of the equation by 102.5:

x = 1291.5 / 102.5

x ≈ 12.604

Rounded to 3 decimal places, x ≈ 12.604.
