Question

Kesley is thinking of a number. She says that it’s the sum of a number and nine. Multiplied by 2/3, is equal to -18.

Answer 1

Answer:

Only the firsts and fourth choices ($\frac{2}{3}(x+9)=-18$ and $\frac{2}{3}x+6=-18$)

Step-by-step explanation:

Turn the equation into words:

"A number plus 9"

$(x+9)$

"Multiplied by $\frac{2}{3}$"

$\frac{2}{3} (x+9)$

"Is equals to -18"

$\frac{2}{3}(x+9)=-18$

Distribute to find the second equation:

$\frac{2}{3}(x+9)=-18\\\frac{2}{3}x+6=-18$
