Answer:

x =  - 0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{2}{3} (x - 2) = 4x

Expand with the distributive rule:

\frac{2}{3} x -  \frac{2}{3}  \times 2 = 4x

\frac{2}{3} x -  \frac{4}{3}  = 4x

Add 4/3 to both sides:

\frac{2}{3} x = 4x +  \frac{4}{3}

Subtract 4x from both sides

- \frac{10}{3} x =  \frac{4}{3}

- 10x = 4

x =  - 0.4
