Answer:

2x + 45 = 6

Explanation:

(2/9)x + 5 = 2/3 Subtract 5 from both sides

(2/9)x +5-5=2/3-5

(2/9)x = - 4 1/3 Multiply by 9

2x = -13/3 * 9

2x = -39

x = -19.5

==============

I see. You don't want it solved. Multiply by 9 to clear the fractions.

==============

2x + 45 = 6

==============

Solve it now. It should be easier.

2x = 6 - 45

2x = - 39

x = -19.5
