Solve 0.06x+0.07=0.08x+0.3

$$0.06x+0.07=0.08x+0.3$$

Solve for x

$$x=-11.5$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 0.08x from both sides.

$$0.06x+0.07-0.08x=0.3$$

Combine 0.06x and -0.08x to get -0.02x.

$$-0.02x+0.07=0.3$$

Subtract 0.07 from both sides.

$$-0.02x=0.3-0.07$$

Subtract 0.07 from 0.3 to get 0.23.

$$-0.02x=0.23$$

Divide both sides by -0.02.

$$x=\frac{0.23}{-0.02}$$

Expand \frac{0.23}{-0.02} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 100.

$$x=\frac{23}{-2}$$

Fraction \frac{23}{-2} can be rewritten as -\frac{23}{2} by extracting the negative sign.

$$x=-\frac{23}{2}$$
