Answer:

x = 6

Explanation:

We want to solve:


(-2)/(3) x+9=(4)/(3) x-3

First, isolate the variable by moving all the terms with x to one side and all the constants to the other side:


(4)/(3)x +(2)/(3) x=9+3

Combining the fraction on the left, we get:


(6)/(3) x=12

6/3 = 2, so:

2x = 12

Dividing both sides by 2 yields:

x = 6
