Solve x0.14+x=7

$$x0.14+x = 7$$

Solve for x

$$x=-\frac{7x_{0}}{50}+7$$

Solution Steps

Subtract x_{0}\times 0.14 from both sides.

$$x=7-x_{0}\times 0.14$$

Multiply -1 and 0.14 to get -0.14.

$$x=7-0.14x_{0}$$

Solve for x_0

$$x_{0}=-\frac{50x}{7}+50$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract x from both sides.

$$x_{0}\times 0.14=7-x$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$0.14x_{0}=7-x$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 0.14, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.

$$\frac{0.14x_{0}}{0.14}=\frac{7-x}{0.14}$$

Dividing by 0.14 undoes the multiplication by 0.14.

$$x_{0}=\frac{7-x}{0.14}$$

Divide 7-x by 0.14 by multiplying 7-x by the reciprocal of 0.14.

$$x_{0}=-\frac{50x}{7}+50$$
