Solve 6(2/3x-3)>8. The thing says the question is too short and to add at least 20 more words so ignore this sentence, it's o

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

$6(\frac{2x}{3} -3) > 8\\$

Solve brackets

6(0.66x-3)>8

Multiply 6 with values in the bracket

So, 6x0.66x and 6x-3

4x- 18> 8

Since 4x and 18 are unlike terms, we will take 18 onto the other side, thus:

4x>8+18

4x>26

Now to find the value of x, divide 4 on B.S

x> $\frac{26}{4}$

X> 6.5

OR in 'fraction form'

X> $\frac{13}{2}$

Hope this helps :D

A, C, and E. Both sides of the ratio has to change at the same time. If you multiply both sides by 2 you get 8:10. If you divide both sides by 2 you get 2:2.5. and if you divide by 1.5 you get 3:3.75.
Sorry if my explanation doesn't make sense
