5x+2-5.01x=0
Subtract 5.01x from both sides.
-0.01x+2=0
Combine 5x and -5.01x to get -0.01x.
-0.01x=-2
Subtract 2 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-2}{-0.01}
Divide both sides by -0.01.
x=\frac{-200}{-1}
Expand \frac{-2}{-0.01} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 100.
x=200
Fraction \frac{-200}{-1} can be simplified to 200 by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.
