Simplifying
x + 0.7 = 1 + -0.2x

Reorder the terms:
0.7 + x = 1 + -0.2x

Solving
0.7 + x = 1 + -0.2x

Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Add '0.2x' to each side of the equation.
0.7 + x + 0.2x = 1 + -0.2x + 0.2x

Combine like terms: x + 0.2x = 1.2x
0.7 + 1.2x = 1 + -0.2x + 0.2x

Combine like terms: -0.2x + 0.2x = 0.0
0.7 + 1.2x = 1 + 0.0
0.7 + 1.2x = 1

Add '-0.7' to each side of the equation.
0.7 + -0.7 + 1.2x = 1 + -0.7

Combine like terms: 0.7 + -0.7 = 0.0
0.0 + 1.2x = 1 + -0.7
1.2x = 1 + -0.7

Combine like terms: 1 + -0.7 = 0.3
1.2x = 0.3

Divide each side by '1.2'.
x = 0.25

Simplifying
x = 0.25

I only know 1 way.
