Question

$x + 10 = 300(1 - x)$
SOLVE FOR X

Answer 1

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
x+10=300(1−x)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
x+10=300(1−x)
x+10=(300)(1)+(300)(−x)(Distribute)
x+10=300+−300x
x+10=−300x+300
Step 2: Add 300x to both sides.
x+10+300x=−300x+300+300x
301x+10=300
Step 3: Subtract 10 from both sides.
301x+10−10=300−10
301x=290
Step 4: Divide both sides by 301.
301x
