Answer:


x=-27

Explanation:


f(x)=(2)/(3) x+3

Substitute -15 for
f(x):


-15=(2)/(3) x+3

Subtract
3 from both sides of the equation:


-18=(2)/(3) x

Rewrite the equation:


-(18)/(1) =(2)/(3) x

Find the cross product:


-54=2x

Divide by the coefficient of
x, which is
2:


-27=x

I'm going to flip the equation so my variable is on the left:


x=-27
