5 + 10x + 5.15 = 60.15
Add the common like terms: 5 + 5.15 = 10.15
New equation:
10.15 + 10x = 60.15
Subtract the 10.15 from 60.15
10.15 + 10x = 60.15
- 10.15 -10.15
________________
10x = 50
Now divide 10x by 10 and 50 by 10.
[tex] \frac{10x}{10} [/tex] = [tex] \frac{50}{10} [/tex]
x = 5
5 is your final answer.
I hope this helped!!
