Answer:

- 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we want to do here is simplify the expression -

$\frac{3}{5}$ ( 2x + 5 ) - 2x, Distribute the " $\frac{3}{5}$ " to elements within the parenthesis

= $\frac{3}{5}$ $*$ 2x + $\frac{3}{5}$ $*$ 5 - 2x, Focus on simplifying the expression " $\frac{3}{5}$ $*$ 2x + $\frac{3}{5}$ $*$ 5 "

= $2\cdot \frac{3}{5}x+5\cdot \frac{3}{5}$ - 2x

= $\frac{6x}{5}+3$ - 2x, Combine fractions

= $-\frac{4x}{5}$ + 3

= $-\frac{4}{5}$ x + 3

So we have our simplified expression " $-\frac{4}{5}$ x + 3, " with $-\frac{4}{5}$ being the coefficient of x. Our requirements are that this fraction should be expressed as a decimal, so we can simply divide the numerator by the denominator to figure that out,

- 4 / 5 = - 0.8,

Solution = - 0.8
