Answer:

x= -10

Explanation:

To solve, we need to get all the variables to one side of the equation, and all the numbers to the other

-3/4(x+2)=6

Distribute the -3/4

-3/4*x + -3/4*2=6

-3/4x-3/2=6

Add 3/2 to both sides to "reverse" the subtraction

-3/4x=15/2

Divide both sides by -3/4 to "reverse" the multiplication

x= -10

Answer:

x = -10

Explanation:

−3/4(x+2)=6

−3/4*x + −3/4*2 = 6

-0.75x -6/4 = 6

-0.75x = 6 + (3/2)

-0.75x = 7.5

x = -10
