0.0412 = 0.0015 - x / 0.025 + 1/2x

Solve for x.

0.0412 = 0.015-x / 0.525x I am not sure where to go from here since there are two x's.

first put the .015 on the other side by taking it away from the other side so

.0262=-40x+.5x

now add the x's

.0262=39.5x

solve for x

where did you get the 40x from??

x/.025 is (1/.025)*x

1/.025=40

oh ok and you got .0262 by subtracting 0.015 from 0.0412??

yes

do for x I got 6.63e-4. Would you agree? Thank you for your help!!

For soem reason when I enter this answer on my online homework it says that its incorrect, I don't know why.

How did you get 39.5x?

is it .0015 or .015 you wrote .0015 first then .015 second. if its .0015 then its .0397 not .0262

yes its .0015 im sorry for the mistake, so it would be

.0397=-40x +.5??
