Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To solve the equation 811(x+45)=2455, first distribute the 811 to both terms inside the parentheses:

811x + 811*45 = 2455
811x + 36595 = 2455

Now, subtract 36595 from both sides to isolate the variable:

811x = 2455 - 36595
811x = -34140

Divide both sides by 811 to solve for x:

x = -34140 / 811
x = -42.12

Therefore, x = -1/5 after approximating the decimal value to the nearest hundredth.
