Answer:
It is -24.
Step-by-step explanation:
First distribute 2/3 on the left side, and distribute 1/2 on the other side. Now you have 1
/3
x + 8 = 1/
6
x + 7 + (−3). Now, combine like terms. Now you should have 1
/3
x + 8 = 1
/6
x + 4. Now, subtract 1/6x on both sides. You should now have 1
/6
x + 8 = 4. Subtract 8 from both sides, and you should have 1/6x = -4. Now the last step is to multiply by 6 on both sides. Now you should get -24. Have a good day!
