0.907\left(x+1\right)=x\times 0.88+0.95
Variable x cannot be equal to -1 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x+1.
0.907x+0.907=x\times 0.88+0.95
Use the distributive property to multiply 0.907 by x+1.
0.907x+0.907-x\times 0.88=0.95
Subtract x\times 0.88 from both sides.
0.027x+0.907=0.95
Combine 0.907x and -x\times 0.88 to get 0.027x.
0.027x=0.95-0.907
Subtract 0.907 from both sides.
0.027x=0.043
Subtract 0.907 from 0.95 to get 0.043.
x=\frac{0.043}{0.027}
Divide both sides by 0.027.
x=\frac{43}{27}
Expand \frac{0.043}{0.027} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 1000.
