x = 2.077(0.481x)

Question

x = 0.999x

how would i solve for x?

Answer 1

You cant. If the numbers are exactly .999, then the only way for this to be true is x=0. If the .999 is approximate (ie rounded), x can be any number, real or imaginary.

Answer 2

what if it was something like:

2.038x = 5.381x?

Answer 3

Then x=0 is the solution.
