1-x-2\times 1000\left(x-2\right)=10^{3}\left(2-x\right)
Calculate 10 to the power of 3 and get 1000.
1-x-2000\left(x-2\right)=10^{3}\left(2-x\right)
Multiply 2 and 1000 to get 2000.
1-x-2000x+4000=10^{3}\left(2-x\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply -2000 by x-2.
1-2001x+4000=10^{3}\left(2-x\right)
Combine -x and -2000x to get -2001x.
4001-2001x=10^{3}\left(2-x\right)
Add 1 and 4000 to get 4001.
4001-2001x=1000\left(2-x\right)
Calculate 10 to the power of 3 and get 1000.
4001-2001x=2000-1000x
Use the distributive property to multiply 1000 by 2-x.
4001-2001x+1000x=2000
Add 1000x to both sides.
4001-1001x=2000
Combine -2001x and 1000x to get -1001x.
-1001x=2000-4001
Subtract 4001 from both sides.
-1001x=-2001
Subtract 4001 from 2000 to get -2001.
x=\frac{-2001}{-1001}
Divide both sides by -1001.
x=\frac{2001}{1001}
Fraction \frac{-2001}{-1001} can be simplified to \frac{2001}{1001} by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.
