To solve the equation 2/3x - 4 = -2, you can follow these steps:
1. Add 4 to both sides of the equation to isolate the term with x: 2/3x - 4 + 4 = -2 + 4
This simplifies to: 2/3x = 2
2. Multiply both sides of the equation by 3 to eliminate the fraction: 3 * (2/3x) = 3 * 2
This simplifies to: 2x = 6
3. Divide both sides of the equation by 2 to solve for x: 2x/2 = 6/2
This simplifies to: x = 3
Therefore, the correct answer is D. x = 3.
