Solve 21=44x+58*(0.446-x)=

$$21=44x+58 \times (0.446-x)=$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{1217}{3500}\approx 0.347714286$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Use the distributive property to multiply 58 by 0.446-x.

$$21=44x+25.868-58x$$

Combine 44x and -58x to get -14x.

$$21=-14x+25.868$$

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

$$-14x+25.868=21$$

Subtract 25.868 from both sides.

$$-14x=21-25.868$$

Subtract 25.868 from 21 to get -4.868.

$$-14x=-4.868$$

Divide both sides by -14.

$$x=\frac{-4.868}{-14}$$

Expand \frac{-4.868}{-14} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 1000.

$$x=\frac{-4868}{-14000}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{-4868}{-14000} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out -4.

$$x=\frac{1217}{3500}$$
