2000+15q=150-2*0.025q

 

2000+15q=150-0.05q

15q + 0.05q =150 - 2000

15.05q = -1,850 divide both sides by 15.05

q = -1,850 / 15.05

q = -122.92358......

2000+15q = 150 - 2*0.025q   simplify the right side

 

2000 + 15q   = 150 - 0.05q     add 0.05q to both sides, subtract 2000 from both sides

 

15.05q =  -1850    divide both sides by 15.05

 

q =   - [ 122 + 278/301 ]    = - [ 122.923588039867109634551495016611295681063122 ]  

 

[  the decimal is of repeating length 42 ]
