Quizplus · Accepted Answer

First, solve the equation: $5(3 - x) = 22$. Distribute the 5: $15 - 5x = 22$. Subtract 15 from both sides: $-5x = 7$. Divide by -5: $x = -1.4$. Rounding to the nearest thousandth gives $1.079$.

Round to the Nearest Thousandth 5(3−x)=225 ( 3 - x ) = 225(3−x)=22

Round to the Nearest Thousandth $5 ( 3 - x ) = 22$
