we have the expression

[tex]0.21s+0.41(s-2)=6.00[/tex]

Solve for s

that means ----> isolate the variable s

[tex]0.21s+0.41s-0.82=6.00[/tex]

Combine like terms

[tex]\begin{gathered} 0.62s=6.00+0.82 \\ 0.62s=6.82 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Divide by 0.62 both sides

[tex]\begin{gathered} s=\frac{6.82}{0.62} \\ s=11 \end{gathered}[/tex]
