Answer:
-2.38 but only if I've put the x in the right place. Leave a note if I have not.
Explanation:
Do the right side first.
27*-3 = -81
So the left side is 34*x = - 81
Now divide by 34. The steps are to combine the like terms when they exist as they did in this question. 27 * -3 both are integers and therefore both are alike.
34x/34 = - 81/34
x = -2.38
