Let's solve the equation step by step:
Given:
\[ 0.7 \times 2 = 1.3x + 2 \]
First, calculate \( 0.7 \times 2 \):
\[ 0.7 \times 2 = 1.4 \]
Now, we can rewrite the equation:
\[ 1.4 = 1.3x + 2 \]
Next, we want to isolate \( x \). Start by subtracting 2 from both sides:
\[ 1.4 - 2 = 1.3x \]
This simplifies to:
\[ -0.6 = 1.3x \]
Now, divide both sides by 1.3:
\[ x = \frac{-0.6}{1.3} \]
Calculating that gives:
\[ x \approx -0.4615 \]
So, the solution to the equation is:
\[ x \approx -0.4615 \]
