1 answer

To solve this equation, we can cross multiply:

3x - 30 = -2 * 4

Simplify both sides of the equation:

3x - 30 = -8

Next, add 30 to both sides of the equation:

3x = -8 + 30

Combine like terms:

3x = 22

To isolate x, divide both sides of the equation by 3:

x = 22/3

Therefore, the solution is x = 22/3.
