[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To solve the equation 1.26(x - 7.352) = 6.426 for x, we need to isolate the variable x.

First, distribute 1.26 to the terms inside the parentheses:

1.26x - 1.26(7.352) = 6.426

Next, simplify the equation:

1.26x - 9.2512 = 6.426

To isolate the variable x, we will add 9.2512 to both sides of the equation:

1.26x - 9.2512 + 9.2512 = 6.426 + 9.2512

This simplifies to:

1.26x = 15.6772

Finally, we will divide both sides of the equation by 1.26 to solve for x:

(1.26x)/1.26 = 15.6772/1.26

x = 12.428

Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 12.428.
