Explanation:

so we basically simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand

2/3(x+6)=-18 then Reorder the terms in parentheses

+( + 0.66666666666667x+4)=-18 after that

Remove unnecessary parentheses

+ 0.66666666666667x+4=-18 then We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.

+ 0.66666666666667x=-18-4 so We simplify left and right side of the equation.

+ 0.66666666666667x=-22 We divide both sides of the equation by 0.66666666666667 to get x.

x=-33 get it?

Answer:

x = -33

Explanation:

2/3(x+6) = -18

multiply (x+6) by 2/3

2/3x + 4 = -18

subtract 4 from both sides

2/3x + 4 - 4 = -18 - 4

2/3x = -22

multiply by 3/2

2/3 x 3/2 x = -22 x 3/2

x = -33
