Answer:

[tex]-\frac{2}{5} =x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

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

First, solve the brackets.

[tex]\frac{2x}{3}-\frac{4}{3} =4x[/tex]

[tex]\frac{2x-4}{3} =4x[/tex]

Now you can use cross multiplication.

[tex]\frac{2x-4}{3} =\frac{4x}{1}[/tex]

[tex]2x-4=3*4x[/tex]

[tex]2x-4=12x[/tex]

Now take 2x to the other side.

[tex]-4=12x-2x[/tex]

[tex]-4=10x[/tex]

[tex]\frac{-4}{10} =\frac{10x}{10}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{-4}{10} =x[/tex]

Now let us make the fraction in it's simplest form.

For that divide both sides by 2.

[tex]-\frac{2}{5} =x[/tex]

Hope this helps :-)
