4000x+100000-1000x=16000
Use the distributive property to multiply 1000 by 100-x.
3000x+100000=16000
Combine 4000x and -1000x to get 3000x.
3000x=16000-100000
Subtract 100000 from both sides.
3000x=-84000
Subtract 100000 from 16000 to get -84000.
x=\frac{-84000}{3000}
Divide both sides by 3000.
x=-28
Divide -84000 by 3000 to get -28.
