Answer:


x=-3

Explanation:


(2)/(3)\left(3x+9\right)=-2\left(2x+6\right)

Expand:


(2)/(3) *3x+(2)/(3) *9=-2*2x+(-2)(6)


2x+6=-4x-12

Subtract 6 from both sides:


2x+6-6=-4x-12-6


2x=-4x-18

Add 4x to both sides:


2x+4x=-4x-18+4x


6x=18

Divide both sides by 6:


(6x)/(6)=(-18)/(6)\\


x=-3
