60e-0.81x+10=15
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-0.81x+10=15-60e
Subtract 60e from both sides.
-0.81x=15-60e-10
Subtract 10 from both sides.
-0.81x=5-60e
Subtract 10 from 15 to get 5.
\frac{-0.81x}{-0.81}=\frac{5-60e}{-0.81}
Divide both sides of the equation by -0.81, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.
x=\frac{5-60e}{-0.81}
Dividing by -0.81 undoes the multiplication by -0.81.
x=\frac{2000e}{27}-\frac{500}{81}
Divide 5-60e by -0.81 by multiplying 5-60e by the reciprocal of -0.81.
