Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 : write question
x = 0.0158 -0.0158x
step 2 : add 0.0158x on both side
or x + 0.0158x = 0.0158 -0.0158x +0.0158x
or x + 0.0158x =0.0158
step 3 : the coefficent of x is 1 and can be added to 0.0158 as they are like term
or 1.0158x =0.0158
Step 4 : Dividing both side by 1.0158
or 1.0158x/1.0158 = 0.0158/1.0518
or x = 0.0158/1.0518
step 5: decimal on fraction can be moved by equal amount on both sides
or x =00158/10518
x = 0.0156
