To solve the equation \(-2.4x - 1.1 = 3.7\):

  1. Add 1.1 to both sides: \[ -2.4x - 1.1 + 1.1 = 3.7 + 1.1 \] This simplifies to: \[ -2.4x = 4.8 \]

  2. Then, divide both sides by -2.4: \[ x = \frac{4.8}{-2.4} \] This simplifies to: \[ x = -2 \]

So, the completed solution is:

\[ −2.4x = 4.8 \]

\[ x = -2 \]
