Answer:

x = -1/4, or -0.25

Explanation:

1/3 + 2/3x = -5/6x - 1/24

first lets write everything in the common denominator of 24

8/24 + 16/24x = -20/24x - 1/24

now we take all our x's onto 1 side, and all our numbers onto the other side

36/24x = -9/24

lets cancel out all the 24's

36x = -9

x = -9/36

now lets simplify

x = -1/4, or -0.25
