Answer:
x = -12.25.
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 4.5 = -7.75
Isolate x by subtracting 4.5 from each side:
x + 4.5 - 4.5 = -7.75 - 4.5
x = -12.25.
Hello there!
x + 4.5 = -7.75
The first step is to subtract 4.5 on both sides
x + 4.5 - 4.5 = -7.75 - 4.5
x = -12.25
(Note: When you have two negative numbers, you add them and then keep the negative sign.)
