( | 800 | + | 1500 | ) | x | + | ( | 300 | + | 100 | ) | x | × | 3 | = | 24000 |
Left side of the equation = | 800 | x | + | 1500 | x | + | ( | 300 | + | 100 | ) | x | × | 3 |
= | 2300 | x | + | ( | 300 | + | 100 | ) | x | × | 3 |
= | 2300 | x | + | 300 | x | × | 3 | + | 100 | x | × | 3 |
= | 2300 | x | + | 900 | x | + | 300 | x |
= | 3500 | x |
3500 | x | = | 24000 |
x | = | 24000 | ÷ | 3500 |
= | 24000 | × | 1 3500 |
= | 48 | × | 1 7 |
x | = | 48 7 |
x | = | 6.857143 |
