X = -25
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
0.55x + 5 = 0.75x + 10
Step 2: Subtract 0.75x from both sides.
0.55x + 5 − 0.75x = 0.75x + 10 − 0.75x
−0.2x + 5 = 10
Step 3: Subtract 5 from both sides.
−0.2x + 5 − 5 = 10 − 5
−0.2x = 5
Step 4: Divide both sides by -0.2.
−0.2x/−0.2 = 5/−0.2
x = −25
