Question

Can seem to get (c) correct. The one with the red x

Answer 1

We are given the following equation:

`4-3(x+2)=0`

We are asked to solve for "x". To do that we will subtract 4 from both sides:

`\begin{gathered} 4-4-3(x+2)=-4 \\ -3(x+2)=-4 \end{gathered}`

Now we will divide both sides by -3:

`\begin{gathered} (-3(x+2))/(-3)=-(4)/(-3) \\ \\ x+2=(4)/(3) \end{gathered}`

Now we will subtract 2 from both sides:

`\begin{gathered} x+2-2=(4)/(3)-2 \\ x=-(2)/(3) \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the value of "x" is -2/3.
