Answer:
[tex] \boxed{x = 24} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] Solve \: for \: x: \\=> 10x + 60 = 300 \\ \\ Substrate \: 60 \: from \: both \: sides: \\ =>10x + (60 - \boxed{60}) = 300 - \boxed{60} \\ \\ 60 - 60 = 0: \\ =>10x = 300 - 60 \\ \\ 300 - 60 = 240: \\ =>10x = \boxed{240} \\ \\ Divide \: both \: sides \: of \: 10 x = 240 \: by \: 10: \\=> \frac{10x}{10} = \frac{240}{10} \\ \\ \frac{10}{10} = 1: \\=>x = \frac{24\cancel{0}}{1\cancel{0}} \\ \\=> x = 24 [/tex]
