Question 226255


{{{0.3x-1.1-x=0.3}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{10(0.3x-1.1-x)=10(0.3)}}} Multiply both sides by 10 to clear out the decimals.



{{{3x-11-10x=3}}} Distribute and multiply.



{{{-7x-11=3}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{-7x=3+11}}} Add {{{11}}} to both sides.



{{{-7x=14}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x=(14)/(-7)}}} Divide both sides by {{{-7}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=-2}}} Reduce.

Answer:


So the solution is {{{x=-2}}}
