Greetings!

Solve for <span>x.
</span>2/3(3x+9)=-2(2x+6)
Distribute the Parenthesis.
2/3*3/1x+2/3*9/1=-2*2x-2*6
Simplify.
6/3x+18/3=-4x-12
Reduce.
2x+6=-4x-12
Add 12 to both sides.
(2x+6)+12=(-4x-12)+12
Simplify.
2x+18=-4x
Subtract both sides by 2x.
(2x+18)-2x=(-4x)-2x
Simplify.
18=-6x
Divide both sides by -6.
(18)/-6=(-6x)/-6
Simplify.
-3=x
x=-3

Hope this helps.

  y = mx +b

where m represents the slope, and b represents the y-intercept. The y-intercept is the value of y when x=0. Here, you have m=-7 and b=8. Your equation is ...

  y = -7x +8
