Solve for x.
−2/3(3x−4)+3x=5/6
x=−1/96
x=−1/16
x=2/16
x=2/96

OKay Simplify both sides of the equation
\[\frac{ -2 }{ 3}(3x−4)+3x=\frac{ 5 }{ 6 }\]

So, after disturbuting and combining like terms you should get this @blackops2_143 \[x+\frac{ 8 }{ 3 }=\frac{ 5 }{ 6 }\]
OpenStudy (blackops2_143):
okay thanks
alones (alones):
and finally to get to your answer you'll have to subtract \(\frac{ 8 }{ 3 }\)from both sides
OpenStudy (blackops2_143):
okay thank you ^.^

\[x+\frac{ 8 }{ 3 }-\frac{ 8 }{ 3 }=\frac{ 5 }{ 6}-\frac{ 8 }{ 3 }\]
