x + 1.2 = 0.80(x + 2)

Reorder the terms:
1.2 + x = 0.80(x + 2)

Reorder the terms:
1.2 + x = 0.80(2 + x)
1.2 + x = (2 * 0.80 + x * 0.80)
1.2 + x = (1.6 + 0.80x)

Solving
1.2 + x = 1.6 + 0.80x

Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Add '-0.80x' to each side of the equation.
1.2 + x + -0.80x = 1.6 + 0.80x + -0.80x

Combine like terms: x + -0.80x = 0.2x
1.2 + 0.2x = 1.6 + 0.80x + -0.80x

Combine like terms: 0.80x + -0.80x = 0.00
1.2 + 0.2x = 1.6 + 0.00
1.2 + 0.2x = 1.6

Add '-1.2' to each side of the equation.
1.2 + -1.2 + 0.2x = 1.6 + -1.2

Combine like terms: 1.2 + -1.2 = 0.0
0.0 + 0.2x = 1.6 + -1.2
0.2x = 1.6 + -1.2

Combine like terms: 1.6 + -1.2 = 0.4
0.2x = 0.4

Divide each side by '0.2'.
x = 2

Simplifying
x = 2
