To solve the equation 0.2x + 14 + 2.4x = 21.8, we can first combine like terms:
0.2x + 2.4x + 14 = 21.8
Simplifying further:
2.6x + 14 = 21.8
Next, we can isolate the variable by subtracting 14 from both sides:
2.6x = 7.8
Finally, we can solve for x by dividing both sides by 2.6:
x = 7.8 / 2.6
Simplifying further:
x = 3
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 3.
