Question

What is the answer to
6+0.10x=0.15x+8

Answer 1

Let's solve this problem step-by-step.

6+0.1x=0.15x+8

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

0.1x+6=0.15x+8

Step 2: Subtract 0.15x from both sides.

0.1x+6−0.15x=0.15x+8−0.15x

−0.05x+6=8

Step 3: Subtract 6 from both sides.

−0.05x+6−6=8−6

−0.05x=2

Step 4: Divide both sides by -0.05.

-0.05x/-0.05=2/-0.05

So, the answer for this problem is x=-40
