Answer:


j=12

Explanation:

The given expression is


-(1)/(3)=(j)/(4) - (10)/(3)

To we solve for
j, first, we need pass the term
(10)/(3) to the other side of the equation


-(1)/(3) + (10)/(3)=(j)/(4)

Then, we sum those fractions


-(1)/(3) + (10)/(3)=(j)/(4)\\(-1+10)/(3)= (j)/(4)\\(9)/(3)= (j)/(4)\\ (j)/(4)=3

Then, we isolate the variable, by passing the 4 to the other side


(j)/(4)=3\\ j=4(3)\\j=12

Therefore, the variable is equivalent to 12.
