0.6x+150=1.4\left(0.4x+90-60\right)
Add 90 and 60 to get 150.
0.6x+150=1.4\left(0.4x+30\right)
Subtract 60 from 90 to get 30.
0.6x+150=0.56x+42
Use the distributive property to multiply 1.4 by 0.4x+30.
0.6x+150-0.56x=42
Subtract 0.56x from both sides.
0.04x+150=42
Combine 0.6x and -0.56x to get 0.04x.
0.04x=42-150
Subtract 150 from both sides.
0.04x=-108
Subtract 150 from 42 to get -108.
x=\frac{-108}{0.04}
Divide both sides by 0.04.
x=\frac{-10800}{4}
Expand \frac{-108}{0.04} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 100.
x=-2700
Divide -10800 by 4 to get -2700.
