To solve the equation 0.2x - 2.15 = -8.27, we need to isolate x.
First, we can add 2.15 to both sides of the equation to get rid of the -2.15 on the left side:
0.2x - 2.15 + 2.15 = -8.27 + 2.15
Simplifying, we have:
0.2x = -6.12
Next, we can divide both sides of the equation by 0.2 to solve for x:
0.2x/0.2 = -6.12/0.2
Simplifying further, we get:
x = -30.6
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = -30.6.
