Answer:

x=−2 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2/3(x - 4) = 2x

(2/3) (x) + (2/3) (-4) = 2x      Distributed

2x/3  +  -8/3 = 2x

Step 2: Subtract 2x from both sides.

2x/3 + -8/3 = 2x

(2x/3) (-2x/1)  + -8/3 =0

-4x/3 + -8/3 = 0

Step 3: Add 8/3 to both sides.

-4x/3 = 8/3

Step 4: Multiply both sides by 3/(-4).

(3/-4)  (-4x/3) = ( 3/-4)  (8/3)

X= -2 because 3 x 8= 24   and  -4 x 3 = -12

24 Divided by -12 give -2

Hopes this helps!
