Answer:
[tex]\boxed {x = \frac{16}{3}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for the value of [tex]x[/tex]:
[tex]6 = x + \frac{2}{3}[/tex]
-Switch sides:
[tex]6 = x + \frac{2}{3}[/tex]
[tex]x + \frac{2}{3} = 6[/tex]
-Subtract [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] to both sides and convert 6 to a fraction:
[tex]x + \frac{2}{3} - \frac{2}{3}= 6 - \frac{2}{3}[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{18}{3} - \frac{2}{3}[/tex]
-Since both fractions have the same denominator, then you subtract the numerators:
[tex]x = \frac{18 - 2}{3}[/tex]
[tex]\boxed {x = \frac{16}{3}}[/tex]
Therefore, the value of [tex]x[/tex] is [tex]\frac{16}{3}[/tex].
