Answer 1

None of the provided options is correct. Let's solve the equation step by step.

Start with the given equation:

13(6x - 9) = -33

Distribute 13 to the terms inside the parentheses:

78x - 117 = -33

Next, add 117 to both sides of the equation to isolate the variable term:

78x = 84

Then, divide both sides of the equation by 78 to solve for x:

x = 84/78

Simplify the fraction:

x = 14/13
