$$152.5-12.5 \cdot 0.05 = -62.5+0.3x$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{8575}{12} = 714\frac{7}{12} \approx 714.583333333$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply 12.5 and 0.05 to get 0.625.

$$152.5-0.625=-62.5+0.3x$$

Subtract 0.625 from 152.5 to get 151.875.

$$151.875=-62.5+0.3x$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$-62.5+0.3x=151.875$$

Add 62.5 to both sides.

$$0.3x=151.875+62.5$$

Add 151.875 and 62.5 to get 214.375.

$$0.3x=214.375$$

Divide both sides by 0.3.

$$x=\frac{214.375}{0.3}$$
