Chapter 6: Problem 64

Solve the equation. $$ x-4=16.7 $$

Short Answer

Expert verified
The solution to the equation is \(x=20.7\).

Step by step solution

01

Identify the subtraction in the original equation

In the given equation, \(x-4=16.7\), the 4 is being subtracted from \(x\).
02

Use the addition property of equality

To isolate \(x\), add 4 to both sides of the equation. This gives \(x-4+4=16.7+4\).
03

Simplify both sides of the equation

Simplifying both sides gives \(x=20.7\).
