2.3x+0.8-1.5x=-1.6
Subtract 1.5x from both sides.
0.8x+0.8=-1.6
Combine 2.3x and -1.5x to get 0.8x.
0.8x=-1.6-0.8
Subtract 0.8 from both sides.
0.8x=-2.4
Subtract 0.8 from -1.6 to get -2.4.
x=\frac{-2.4}{0.8}
Divide both sides by 0.8.
x=\frac{-24}{8}
Expand \frac{-2.4}{0.8} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.
x=-3
Divide -24 by 8 to get -3.
