Help solving for x? $1,733.65= $1147.46 + 10815x

OpenStudy (one098):

First subtract 1147.46 from both sides.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Obviously the answer is obvious. No need to thank me.

OpenStudy (accidentalaichan):

586.19

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's good because there really isn't anything to thank you for @LambertTheHomeopath.

OpenStudy (accidentalaichan):

So 586.19 = 10815x Simplifying, it's 18.5, but it's not the right answer.

OpenStudy (accidentalaichan):

This is why I'm stuck.

OpenStudy (one098):

Now divide both sides by 10815... Are you sure you're not missing a period in that number?

OpenStudy (accidentalaichan):

I'm sure.

OpenStudy (one098):

Ok, so just divide both sides by that number, and your answer will be negative, so just solve..

OpenStudy (accidentalaichan):

Okay, I got .05

OpenStudy (accidentalaichan):

Thank you!
