Respuesta :
X=2.08
To solve you need to first get x by itself. To do that you want to subtract 6 from both sides (get 6 away from x and put on other side) which will leave you with -5.2=-2.5x next isolate x by dividing -2.5 on both sides to then get 2.08=x

Answer:
BEDMAS
Step-by-step explanation:
The order of operations for any and every equation is BEDMAS:
Brackets - none exist here
Exponents - none exist here
Division/Multiplication - "2.5x"
Addition/Subtraction - "+6-2.5x"
When isolating a variable, order of operations is reversed:
Addition/Subtraction:
Move +6 to the left side by subtracting it:
5.2 = -2.5x
Division/Multiplication:
Divide "-2.5x" by -2.5 to isolate x:
x = 5.2/-2.5
x = 2.08
