Solve -0.6(-0.07-5x)=3.3x

$$- 0.6 ( - 0.07 - 5 x ) = 3.3 x$$

Solve for x

$$x=0.14$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Use the distributive property to multiply -0.6 by -0.07-5x.

$$0.042+3x=3.3x$$

Subtract 3.3x from both sides.

$$0.042+3x-3.3x=0$$

Combine 3x and -3.3x to get -0.3x.

$$0.042-0.3x=0$$

Subtract 0.042 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.

$$-0.3x=-0.042$$

Divide both sides by -0.3.

$$x=\frac{-0.042}{-0.3}$$

Expand \frac{-0.042}{-0.3} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 1000.

$$x=\frac{-42}{-300}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{-42}{-300} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out -6.

$$x=\frac{7}{50}$$
