Question

how do I solve this problem x=0.6x+384

Answer 1

Easier to think of it as:
1x=0.6x+384

Combine your X's by subtracting 0.4x on both sides to get:
0.4x=384

Divide by 0.4 to get x alone on one side:
x=960

Answer 2

how did you get 0.4x

Answer 3

I don't understand how you came up with 0.4x

Answer 4

1x=0.6x+384
-.6x from both sides
.4x = 384

Answer 5

Yes, Like DingusExpress said :)

1x = 0.6x + 384
-0.6x -0.6x
_________________
0.4x = 0 + 384

Then you divide on both sides by the coefficient of x, which is 0.4, and you get x = 960
