-4.3 - 0.01x = -6.1
Apply the addition property: add +4.3 to both sides of the equation:
-0.01x = -6.1 + 4.3
-0.01x = -1.8
Apply the division property and divide both sides of the equation by -0.01
-0.01x/(-0.01) = (-1.8)/(-(0.01)
x = 180
Check:
-4.3 - (0.01)(180) = -6.1
-4.3 - 1.8 = -6.1
-6.1 = -6.1
