n_{5}x=7x-0.05-0.25
Subtract 0.25 from both sides.
n_{5}x=7x-0.3
Subtract 0.25 from -0.05 to get -0.3.
xn_{5}=7x-0.3
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{xn_{5}}{x}=\frac{7x-0.3}{x}
Divide both sides by x.
n_{5}=\frac{7x-0.3}{x}
Dividing by x undoes the multiplication by x.
n_{5}=7-\frac{3}{10x}
Divide 7x-0.3 by x.
n_{5}x+0.25-7x=-0.05
Subtract 7x from both sides.
n_{5}x-7x=-0.05-0.25
Subtract 0.25 from both sides.
n_{5}x-7x=-0.3
Subtract 0.25 from -0.05 to get -0.3.
\left(n_{5}-7\right)x=-0.3
Combine all terms containing x.
\frac{\left(n_{5}-7\right)x}{n_{5}-7}=-\frac{0.3}{n_{5}-7}
Divide both sides by n_{5}-7.
x=-\frac{0.3}{n_{5}-7}
Dividing by n_{5}-7 undoes the multiplication by n_{5}-7.
x=-\frac{3}{10\left(n_{5}-7\right)}
Divide -0.3 by n_{5}-7.
