Question

can anyone help with this?

Answer 1

\[\frac{ 2 }{ 3 } (x - 2) = 4x\]

Answer 2

You distribute.
\(\large{\frac{2}{3}(x)-\frac{2}{3}(2)=4x}\)

Answer 3

ok

Answer 4

So, what is the resulting equation?

Answer 5

I have no idea.

Answer 6

how about
\[\frac{2}{3}(x-2)=4x \Rightarrow 2(x-2)=12x \Rightarrow 2x - 4 = 12 x\]
and solve for x

Answer 7

\(\large{\dfrac{2x}{3}-\dfrac{4}{3}=4x}\)

\(x=-\dfrac{2}{5}\)
