answer:

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

my suggestion for this problem and all problems like it would to turn everything into 6ths. 1/3 would become 2/6. and 2 would become 12/6. leave the negatives. now you'll add 2/6 to -12/6. which will equal 10/6. divide 10/6 by 5/6 and youll get -2. x=-2

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

● (5/6)x - (1/3) = -2

Add (1/3) to both sides

● (5/6)x - (1/3) + (1/3) = -2 + (1/3)

-2 is (-6/3)

● (5/6)x = (-6/3) + (1/3)

● (5/6)x = -5/3

Move 5/6 to the other side and switch the places of 5 and 6

● x = (-5/3) × (6/5)

● x = -30/15

● x = -2
