The equation 0.24x−0.74=−1.1

is solved as follows. Fill in the correct numbers to complete the solution.

1 answer

To solve the equation \( 0.24x - 0.74 = -1.1 \), we can follow these steps:

  1. Add 0.74 to both sides to isolate the term with \( x \): \[ 0.24x - 0.74 + 0.74 = -1.1 + 0.74 \] This simplifies to: \[ 0.24x = -0.36 \]

  2. Now divide both sides by 0.24 to solve for \( x \): \[ x = \frac{-0.36}{0.24} \]

  3. Calculate the right side: \[ x = -1.5 \]

Thus, the solution to the equation \( 0.24x - 0.74 = -1.1 \) is \( x = -1.5 \).
