    So the equation will be 30+0.15x=36+0.10x

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First

    30+0.15x

    Second

    36+0.10x

    Combine the equations.

    30+0.15x=36+0.10x

    Subtract 0.10x

    30+0.15x-0.10x=36+0.10x-0.10x

    30+0.05x=36

    Subtract 30

    30-30+0.05x=36-30

    0.05x=6

    Divide by 0.05

    0.05x/0.05=6/0.05

    x=120
