1.3x-1-0.6x=2.5
Subtract 0.6x from both sides.
0.7x-1=2.5
Combine 1.3x and -0.6x to get 0.7x.
0.7x=2.5+1
Add 1 to both sides.
0.7x=3.5
Add 2.5 and 1 to get 3.5.
x=\frac{3.5}{0.7}
Divide both sides by 0.7.
x=\frac{35}{7}
Expand \frac{3.5}{0.7} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.
x=5
Divide 35 by 7 to get 5.
