Answer
$x=-8$
Work Step by Step
$\frac{2x}{3}-\frac{8}{3}=x$
Add $\frac{8}{3}$ on both sides.
$\frac{2x}{3}-\frac{8}{3}+\frac{8}{3}=x+\frac{8}{3}$
$\frac{2x}{3}=x+\frac{8}{3}$
Multiply both sides by $3$.
$\frac{2x}{3}(3)=(x+\frac{8}{3})(3)$
$2x=3x+8$
Subtract $3x$ from both sides.
$2x-3x=3x-3x+8$
$-x=8$
$x=-8$
