Answer:
The picture shows the answer on the graph
Step-by-step explanation:
-2=-3/4×(x-6)
Distribute -3/4 through the parenthesis
-2= -3/4x+9/2
Multiply both sides of the equation by 4
-8=-3x+18
Move the variable to the left side and change its sign
3x-8=18
Move constant to the right side and change its sign
3x=18+8
Add the numbers
3x=26
Divide both sides of the equation by 3
x=26/3
Alternative Form- x=8 2/3 or x=8.6
