Step 1.1.1

Apply the distributive property.

$0.16 x + 0.16 \cdot - 4 + 0.06 = 0.02 x - 0.05 \cdot 50$

Step 1.1.2

Multiply $0.16$ by $- 4$ .

$0.16 x - 0.64 + 0.06 = 0.02 x - 0.05 \cdot 50$

Step 1.2

Add $- 0.64$ and $0.06$ .

$0.16 x - 0.58 = 0.02 x - 0.05 \cdot 50$

Step 2

Multiply $- 0.05$ by $50$ .

$0.16 x - 0.58 = 0.02 x - 2.5$

Step 3

Graph each side of the equation. The solution is the x-value of the point of intersection.

$x \approx - 13.7142857$
