Explanation:
Leave the term in x on the left side of the equation and collect numeric values on the right side.
subtract 3.2 from both sides.
#5.2xcancel(+3.2)cancel(-3.2)=9.8-3.2#
#rArr5.2x=6.6# To solve for x, divide both sides by 5.2
#(cancel(5.2) x)/cancel(5.2)=6.6/5.2#
#rArrx=6.6/5.2=(6.6xx10)/(5.2xx10)#
#rArrx=66/52=33/26larr" exact value solution"#
