Answer:

x = 1

Explanation:

0.5x-0.3=0.2

1. Multiply both sides by 10.

0.5x*10-0.3*10=0.2*10

2. Refine.

5x-3=2

3. Add 3 to both sides.

5x-3+3=2+3

4. Simplify.

5x=5

5. Divide both sides by 5.

5x/5=5/5

6. Simplify.

x=1

Answer:

Explanation:

0.5x - 0.3 = 0.2

add 0.3 to both the sides

0.5x - 0.3 + 0.3 = 0.2 + 0.3

0.5x + 0 = 0.5

0.5x = 0.5


x=(0.5)/(0.5)\\\\x = 1
