+3.2

Answer 1

To solve the equation

\[ -4.8 = -\frac{x}{0.3} + 3.2, \]

we will isolate \(x\).

1. First, subtract \(3.2\) from both sides:

\[ -4.8 - 3.2 = -\frac{x}{0.3}. \]

\[ -8.0 = -\frac{x}{0.3}. \]

2. To eliminate the negative sign, we can multiply both sides by \(-1\):

\[ 8.0 = \frac{x}{0.3}. \]

3. Next, multiply both sides by \(0.3\) to solve for \(x\):

\[ x = 8.0 \times 0.3. \]

4. Calculate \(8.0 \times 0.3\):

\[ x = 2.4. \]

So, the solution is

\[ \boxed{2.4}. \]
