Answer:
x=9
Explanation:
You add one to both sides, multiply 3 to both sides (to further isolate x), and then divide by 2 on both sides. When you substitute back in, both sides of the equation are equal to each other.
2/3x-1=5
Add 1 to each side
2/3x-1+1= 5+1
2/3x = 6
Multiply each side by 3/2
2/3x*3/2 = 6*3/2
x = 9
