Answer:


x = - 9

Explanation:


6 - (2)/(9) x = 8 \\ - (2)/(9) x = 8 - 6 \\ - (2)/(9) x = 2 \\ - 2x = 2 * 9 \\ - 2x = 18 \\ ( - 2x)/( - 2) = (18)/( - 2) \\ x = - 9

Answer:

x = -9

Explanation:

6 - 2/9x = 8

Subtract 6 from each side

6-6 - 2/9x = 8-6

-2/9 x = 2

Multiply each side by -9/2 to isolate x

-9/2 * -2/9x = 2*-9/2

x = -9
