You asked:

Solve the equation \(0.85 = 0.35 + 0.50 + 0.50 - 0.25 - 0.25 - 0.15 + X\) for the variable \(X\).

MathBot Answer:

The solution is: \[X = \frac{3}{20} = 0.15\]


\[\begin{aligned}0.85 &= 0.35 + 0.50 + 0.50 - 0.25 - 0.25 - 0.15 + X\\0.85 &= X + 0.7\\- X &= 0.15\\X &= 0.15\end{aligned}\]
