Solve 980=x+x0.6+x0.6*0.6

$$980 = x+x0.6+x0.6 \cdot 0.6$$

Solve for x

$$x=-\frac{24x_{0}}{25}+980$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 0.6 and 0.6 to get 0.36.

$$980=x+x_{0}\times 0.6+x_{0}\times 0.36$$

Combine x_{0}\times 0.6 and x_{0}\times 0.36 to get 0.96x_{0}.

$$980=x+0.96x_{0}$$

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

$$x+0.96x_{0}=980$$

Subtract 0.96x_{0} from both sides.

$$x=980-0.96x_{0}$$

Solve for x_0

$$x_{0}=-\frac{25x}{24}+\frac{6125}{6}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply 0.6 and 0.6 to get 0.36.

$$980=x+x_{0}\times 0.6+x_{0}\times 0.36$$

Combine x_{0}\times 0.6 and x_{0}\times 0.36 to get 0.96x_{0}.

$$980=x+0.96x_{0}$$

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

$$x+0.96x_{0}=980$$

Subtract x from both sides.

$$0.96x_{0}=980-x$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 0.96, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.

$$\frac{0.96x_{0}}{0.96}=\frac{980-x}{0.96}$$

Dividing by 0.96 undoes the multiplication by 0.96.

$$x_{0}=\frac{980-x}{0.96}$$

Divide 980-x by 0.96 by multiplying 980-x by the reciprocal of 0.96.

$$x_{0}=-\frac{25x}{24}+\frac{6125}{6}$$
