To solve for x, we can start by multiplying both sides of the equation by 3 to eliminate the fraction:
3 * (1/3)(6x - 9) = 3 * (-33)
This simplifies to:
6x - 9 = -99
Next, we can add 9 to both sides of the equation to isolate the x term:
6x = -99 + 9
This simplifies to:
6x = -90
Finally, we divide both sides of the equation by 6 to solve for x:
x = -90/6
This simplifies to:
x = -15
Therefore, the correct answer is x = -15.
3 * (1/3)(6x - 9) = 3 * (-33)
This simplifies to:
6x - 9 = -99
Next, we can add 9 to both sides of the equation to isolate the x term:
6x = -99 + 9
This simplifies to:
6x = -90
Finally, we divide both sides of the equation by 6 to solve for x:
x = -90/6
This simplifies to:
x = -15
Therefore, the correct answer is x = -15.
