Given the expression:


22.9696=22.9898x+21.9944\mleft(1-x\mright)

Let's simplify and determine x.

Get,


22.9696=22.9898x+21.9944(1-x)
22.9696=22.9898x+21.9944-21.9944x

Let's proceed adding/subtracting like terms:


22.9696=22.9898x+21.9944-21.9944x
21.9944x\text{-}22.9898x\text{ = }21.9944\text{-}22.9696
\text{ -0.9954x = -0.9752}
\frac{\text{ -0.9954x}}{-0.9954}\text{ = }\frac{\text{-0.9752}}{-0.9954}
\text{ x = 0.9797066506 }\approx\text{ 0.9797}

Therefore, x = 0.9797
