Question

Solve for e.
4/3 = -6e - 5/3

Answer 1

e = -
`(1)/(2)`

Explanation:

given the equation

`(4)/(3)` = 6e -
`(5)/(3)` ( multiply through by 3 to clear the fractions )

3 ×
`(4)/(3)` = 3 × - 6e - 3 ×
`(5)/(3)` ( simplify both sides )

4 = - 18e - 5 ( add 5 to both sides )

9 = - 18e ( divide both sides by - 18 )

`(9)/(-18)` =
`(-18)/(-18)` e , that is

-
`(1)/(2)` = e

Answer 2

4/3 = -6e - 5/3

6e = -5/3-4/3

6e=-9/3

6e=-3

e=-3/6 =-1/2
