0.24-0.02(x+1)=-0.04(2-x)

Solution for 0.24-0.02(x+1)=-0.04(2-x) equation:

Simplifying
0.24 + -0.02(x + 1) = -0.04(2 + -1x)

Reorder the terms:
0.24 + -0.02(1 + x) = -0.04(2 + -1x)
0.24 + (1 * -0.02 + x * -0.02) = -0.04(2 + -1x)
0.24 + (-0.02 + -0.02x) = -0.04(2 + -1x)

Combine like terms: 0.24 + -0.02 = 0.22
0.22 + -0.02x = -0.04(2 + -1x)
0.22 + -0.02x = (2 * -0.04 + -1x * -0.04)
0.22 + -0.02x = (-0.08 + 0.04x)

Solving
0.22 + -0.02x = -0.08 + 0.04x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-0.04x' to each side of the equation.
0.22 + -0.02x + -0.04x = -0.08 + 0.04x + -0.04x

Combine like terms: -0.02x + -0.04x = -0.06x
0.22 + -0.06x = -0.08 + 0.04x + -0.04x

Combine like terms: 0.04x + -0.04x = 0.00
0.22 + -0.06x = -0.08 + 0.00
0.22 + -0.06x = -0.08

Add '-0.22' to each side of the equation.
0.22 + -0.22 + -0.06x = -0.08 + -0.22

Combine like terms: 0.22 + -0.22 = 0.00
0.00 + -0.06x = -0.08 + -0.22
-0.06x = -0.08 + -0.22

Combine like terms: -0.08 + -0.22 = -0.3
-0.06x = -0.3

Divide each side by '-0.06'.
x = 5

Simplifying
x = 5
