<h3>
Answer: B) 2</h3>
=========================================================
Explanation:
Take away the four white small squares on the left side. To balance things out, you have to add 4 black squares to the right side.
Also, take away the two white long rectangles from the right side. To balance this out, you have to add 2 gray long rectangles to the left side.
You should have:
- 5 gray rectangles, and no squares (of any color) on the left side
- 10 black squares, no long rectangles (of any color), on the right side
From here you'll group up the 10 black squares so that you'll have 2 black squares per gray rectangle.
This means the solution is 2.
-------------------------------------
If you're curious about the algebraic way to solve, then you could do this:
3x-4 = -2x+6
3x+2x = 6+4
5x = 10
x = 10/5
x = 2
This method doesn't require us to use the visual model.

Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
The rules of exponents tell you ...
... (a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c) . . . . . . applies inside parentheses
... (a^b)^c = a^(b·c) . . . . . . . . applies to the overall expression
The Order of Operations tells you to evaluate inside parentheses first. Doing that, you have ...
... x^(4/3)·x^(2/3) = x^((4+2)/3) = x^2
Now, you have ...
... (x^2)^(1/3)
and the rule of exponents tells you to multiply the exponents.
... = x^(2·1/3) = x^(2/3)
