Certainly! Let's solve the equation step by step:

\(x - 4 = 2x + \frac{1}{3}\)

Combine like terms:

\(-4 = x + \frac{1}{3}\)

Subtract \(x\) from both sides:

\(-4 - x = \frac{1}{3}\)

Combine the constants on the left side:

\(-x - 4 = \frac{1}{3}\)

Multiply both sides by -1 to simplify:

\(x + 4 = -\frac{1}{3}\)

Subtract 4 from both sides:

\(x = -\frac{1}{3} - 4\)

Combine the constants:

\(x = -\frac{13}{3}\)

So, the solution to the equation is \(x = -\frac{13}{3}\).
