4x + 8 = \frac{2}{3}(9 + x)

12x + 24 = 2(9 + x)             <em>multiplied both sides by 3</em>

12x + 24 = 18 + 2x             <em>distributed 2 on the right side</em>

10x + 24 = 18                      <em>subtracted 2x from both sides</em>

         10x = -6                     <em>subtracted 24 from both sides</em>

         \frac{10x}{10} = \frac{-6}{10}           <em>divided both sides by 10</em>

           x = \frac{-3}{5}

Answer: \frac{-3}{5}
