Identify the error(s) and explain the correct answer.

Given equation: \(6.5x + 3.05x = 38.2\)

1. Combine like terms on the left side:
\[
(6.5 + 3.05)x = 38.2 \\
9.55x = 38.2
\]

2. Solve for \(x\) by dividing both sides by 9.55:
\[
x = \frac{38.2}{9.55}
\]

3. Simplify the division to find the correct value of \(x\).

Answer :

Subtract the sum that appears on the same side of the equation as the "x" to isolate the "x" on one side of the algebraic equation. For instance, rewrite the equation "x + 5 = 12" as "x = 12 - 5" and then find "x" in the new equation. The answer is "x = 7"

A linear equation example is what?

Linear equations in two variables, for example, are used when a linear equation contains two variables. Examples of linear equations include 2x - 3 = 0, 2y = 8, m + 1 = 0, x/2 = 3, and 3x - y + z = 3.

How should a linear equation be written?

A linear equation has the slope-intercept form y = mx + b. Variables in the equation are x and y. When x is 0, the numbers m and b provide the line's slope (m) and the value of y. (b). Because (0,y) is the location where the line crosses the y-axis, the value of y when x is 0 is referred to as the y-intercept.
