1/3 (6x-9)=-33

To solve for x, you need to isolate the variable on one side of the equation.

First, distribute the 1/3 to the terms inside the parentheses:
1/3 * 6x - 1/3 * 9 = -33
2x - 3 = -33

Next, add 3 to both sides of the equation to get rid of the negative symbol:
2x - 3 + 3 = -33 + 3
2x = -30

Finally, divide both sides of the equation by 2 to solve for x:
2x/2 = -30/2
x = -15

Therefore, the solution to the equation 1/3(6x - 9) = -33 is x = -15.
