Question

How would you solved number 3

Answer 1

Subtract 2 on both sides
`(2)/(3) x + 2 - 2 = - (2)/(9) -2`
multiply 3/2 on both sides to isolate x
`(2)/(3) x * (3)/(2) = - (16)/(9) * (3)/(2)`
Simplify to get your answer
`x = -(8)/(3)`

Answer 2

Minus the 2 and multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 2/3 I think ...
