Answer:
x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
→Distribute the [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] to (5x - 9), and the 2 to [tex](\frac{1}{3} x + 6)[/tex]:
[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex](5x - 9) = 2( [tex]\frac{1}{3}x[/tex] + 6)
[tex]\frac{5}{3}x[/tex] + 3 = [tex]\frac{2}{3}x[/tex]+ 12
→Subtract [tex]\frac{2}{3}x[/tex] from both sides:
x + 3 = 12
→Subtract 3 from both sides:
x = 9
