1.1x+1.2x-5.4=-10x

Move all terms to the left:

1.1x+1.2x-5.4-(-10x)=0

Add all the numbers together, and all the variables

2.3x-(-10x)-5.4=0

Get rid of parentheses

2.3x+10x-5.4=0

Add all the numbers together, and all the variables

12.3x-5.4=0

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

12.3x=5.4

x=5.4/12.3

x=3.8571428571429/8.7857142857143

Hope it helps!
