Answer:

x = -4/3

Explanation:

to solve for the value of x in the expression 2/3 (3x+2)=1x

we have

2(3x +2) /3 = x

6x + 4 /3 = x

using cross multiply technique

6x + 4 = 3 × x

6x + 4 = 3x

collect the like terms

6x -3x = -4

3x = -4

divide both sides by the coefficient of x

3x/3 = -4/3

x = -4/3
