Question

4= - 2/3 x. Find x? pls help

Answer 1

Given 4= - 2/3 x, the 1st step is to cross multiply;

`\begin{gathered} 4=(-2)/(3)x \\ 12=-2x \end{gathered}`

We'll then divide both sides of the equation by 2;

`\begin{gathered} (12)/(2)=(-2)/(2)x \\ 6=-x \\ \text{Multiplying both sides by -1, we'll then have;} \\ x=-6 \end{gathered}`

Therefore, x = -6
