Solve 21.2x+7.5=-1.3x+7.3

$$21.2 x + 7.5 = - 1.3 x + 7.3$$

Solve for x

$$x=-\frac{2}{225}\approx -0.008888889$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Add 1.3x to both sides.

$$21.2x+7.5+1.3x=7.3$$

Combine 21.2x and 1.3x to get 22.5x.

$$22.5x+7.5=7.3$$

Subtract 7.5 from both sides.

$$22.5x=7.3-7.5$$

Subtract 7.5 from 7.3 to get -0.2.

$$22.5x=-0.2$$

Divide both sides by 22.5.

$$x=\frac{-0.2}{22.5}$$

Expand \frac{-0.2}{22.5} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.

$$x=\frac{-2}{225}$$

Fraction \frac{-2}{225} can be rewritten as -\frac{2}{225} by extracting the negative sign.

$$x=-\frac{2}{225}$$
