Solve 0.09x+0.24=0.06x+0.42

$$0.09 x + 0.24 = 0.06 x + 0.42$$

Solve for x

$$x=6$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 0.06x from both sides.

$$0.09x+0.24-0.06x=0.42$$

Combine 0.09x and -0.06x to get 0.03x.

$$0.03x+0.24=0.42$$

Subtract 0.24 from both sides.

$$0.03x=0.42-0.24$$

Subtract 0.24 from 0.42 to get 0.18.

$$0.03x=0.18$$

Divide both sides by 0.03.

$$x=\frac{0.18}{0.03}$$

Expand \frac{0.18}{0.03} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 100.

$$x=\frac{18}{3}$$

Divide 18 by 3 to get 6.

$$x=6$$
