Answer:

• 2/3|2 -x| = 1/15

• |2 -x| = 1/10

• 1/5 +|4/3 -2/3x| = 4/15

Explanation:

Starting with the given equation, subtract 1/5 = 3/15.

(2/3)|2 -x| = 4/15 - 3/15

(2/3)|2 -x| = 1/15 . . . . . . . . matches the first choice

Now, multiply by 3/2.

|2 -x| = 3/30

|2 -x| = 1/10 . . . . . . . . . . . . matches the third choice

___

If you decide to distribute the coefficient 2/3 instead, you have

1/5 + |2·2/3 -x·2/3| = 4/15

1/5 + |4/3 -2/3x| = 4/15 . . . . matches the selected choice
