Answer:
x = - [tex]\frac{15}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex](x - 9) = - 11
Multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction
2(x - 9) = - 33 ← distribute left side
2x - 18 = - 33 ( add 18 to both sides )
2x = - 15 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = - [tex]\frac{15}{2}[/tex]
Answer:
X= -7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolate the variable.
The first step would be to distribute the 2/3 to the x and -9 and you get 2/3 x -6 = -11. Then you add 6 to both sides, equaling to 2/3x = -5. The second to last step would be multiplying both sides by 3 canceling out the fraction on the left ; the equation would be 2x = -15. The final step is to divide both sides by the variable (2x) and therefore x equals -15/2 or -7.5 .
