Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
75x + -300 = 25x + 200
Reorder the terms:
-300 + 75x = 25x + 200
Reorder the terms:
-300 + 75x = 200 + 25x
Solving
-300 + 75x = 200 + 25x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-25x' to each side of the equation.
-300 + 75x + -25x = 200 + 25x + -25x
Combine like terms: 75x + -25x = 50x
-300 + 50x = 200 + 25x + -25x
Combine like terms: 25x + -25x = 0
-300 + 50x = 200 + 0
-300 + 50x = 200
Add '300' to each side of the equation.
-300 + 300 + 50x = 200 + 300
Combine like terms: -300 + 300 = 0
0 + 50x = 200 + 300
50x = 200 + 300
Combine like terms: 200 + 300 = 500
50x = 500
Divide each side by '50'.
x = 10
Simplifying
x = 10
