Answer:


\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{x = 300}}}}}

Explanation:


\sf{110 + 0.70x = 50 + 0.90x}

Move 0.90x to left hand side and change it's sign


\sf{0.70x - 0.90x + 110 = 50}

Move 110 to right hand side and change it's sign


\sf{0.70x - 0.90x = 50 - 110}

Collect like terms


\sf{ - 0.2x = 50 - 110}

Calculate


\sf{ - 0.2x = - 60}

Divide both sides of the equation by -0.2


\sf{ ( - 0.2x)/( - 0.2) = ( - 60)/( - 0.2) }

Calculate


\sf{x = 300}

Hope I helped!

Best regards!!
