To solve for x, we can start by simplifying the equation:

0.3 - (6/5)x = -3

Next, we can get rid of the decimal by multiplying through the equation by 10:

10(0.3) - 10(6/5)x = 10(-3)
3 - 12x = -30

Add 12x to both sides of the equation:

3 - 12x + 12x = -30 + 12x
3 = -30 + 12x

Combine like terms:

3 = 12x - 30

Add 30 to both sides of the equation:

3 + 30 = 12x - 30 + 30
33 = 12x

Divide both sides of the equation by 12:

33/12 = 12x/12
11/4 = x

Therefore, x = 11/4.
