Step-by-step explanation:

0.2(x – 4.5) + 1.7 = 9.6

0.2x - 0.9 + 1.7 = 9.6

0.2x + 1.7 = 10.5

0.2x = 8.8

x = 44

Have a great day!

Answer:

44

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Distribute.  0.2 times x = 0.2x.  0.2 times -4.5 = -0.9.

2. Simplify.  0.2x-0.9+1.7 = 9.6

-0.9+1.7 = 0.8 --> 0.2x+0.8 = 9.6

3. Solve for x:

- subtract 0.8 from both sides: 0.2x = 8.8

- divide both sides by 0.2: x = 44
