Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

In the equation 7.2x = 14.4, to find x, we first want to isolate the variable.

It would be a little easier if there were no decimals so:

7.2x = 14.4

We could multiply both sides by 10 to get rid of the decimals

7.2x * 10 = 14.4 * 10

72x = 144

We then can divide both sides by 72

72x/72 = 144/72

x = 2
