Answer:
<u><em>x = -2.52631578</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Combine multiplied terms into a single fraction.
0.3x - 2.4 = 12.5x
3x/10 - 2.4= 1.25x
Again, combine multiplied terms into a single fraction.
3x/10 - 2.4= 1.25x
3x/10 - 2.4 = 5x/4
Add 2.4 to both sides of the equation
3x/10 - 2.4 = 5x/4
3x/10 - 2.4 + 2.4 = 5x/4 + 2.4
Simplify (Add the numbers)
3x/10 = 5x/4 + 2.4
Multiply all terms by the same value to eliminate fraction denominators.
3x/10 = 5x/4 + 2.4
2 x 2 x 5 x 3x/10 = 2 x 2 x 5(5x/4 +2.4)
Therefor, x = 2.52631578
