Question

-2.4x-1.1=3.7 is solved
-2.4x=
add 1.1 to both sides of the equation. if the answer is a decimal value enter the decimal.
x=
divide both sides o the equation by -2.4. if the answer is a decimal value enter the decimal

Answer 1

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

1. Start with the initial equation:
\[
-2.4x - 1.1 = 3.7
\]

2. Add \(1.1\) to both sides:
\[
-2.4x = 3.7 + 1.1
\]
\[
-2.4x = 4.8
\]

3. Now, divide both sides by \(-2.4\):
\[
x = \frac{4.8}{-2.4}
\]
Calculating that:
\[
x = -2
\]

Thus, the answers are:
- \(-2.4x = 4.8\)
- \(x = -2\)
