Respuesta :

The method which is used to solve the provided equation using the distributive property is,

[tex]\rm x = 4 + 8.5 = 12.5[/tex]

What is distributive property?

The distributive property is to make something easier to do or understand and to make something less complicated.

The given expression is [tex]\rm - 0.2(x-4) = -1.7[/tex].

The expression can be written as

[tex]\rm 0.2(x-4) = 1.7[/tex]

Divide both sides by 0.2

[tex]\rm x-4 = \dfrac{1.7}{0.2} = 8.5[/tex]

Add 4 both sides, we have

[tex]\rm x = 4 + 8.5 = 12.5[/tex]

Thus, the value of x is 12.5.
