1.5x-0.7=1.2-2x
Use the distributive property to multiply 0.4 by 3-5x.
1.5x-0.7+2x=1.2
Add 2x to both sides.
3.5x-0.7=1.2
Combine 1.5x and 2x to get 3.5x.
3.5x=1.2+0.7
Add 0.7 to both sides.
3.5x=1.9
Add 1.2 and 0.7 to get 1.9.
x=\frac{1.9}{3.5}
Divide both sides by 3.5.
x=\frac{19}{35}
Expand \frac{1.9}{3.5} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.
