Question

Solve for x. 2/3(x−7)=−2

Answer 1

2/3x - 14/3 = -2
3(2/3x - 14/3) = -2(3)
           2x - 14 = -6
                   2x = -6 + 14
                   2x = 8
                     x = 8/2
                     x= 4

hope this helps :)

Answer 2

2/3(x-7)=-2
2/3(x-7+7)=-2+7
2/3(x)=5
6x=5
6 6
x=1.2
