Answer 2

$\sf→ \dfrac{ - 7}{3} \: \: or \: \: - 2 \dfrac{1}{3}$

Step By Step Explanation

$\\\\ \frak{ ~~~\implies ~~~ -2 (3x+3)=8}$

$\frak{ ~~~\implies ~~~ -6x - 6=8}$

$\frak{ ~~~\implies ~~~ -6(x + 1)=8}$

$\frak{ ~~~\implies ~~~ (x + 1)= - \dfrac{8}{ 6} }$

$\frak{ ~~~\implies ~~~ x = - \dfrac{8}{ 6} - 1 }$

$\frak{ ~~~\implies ~~~ x = \dfrac{ - 8 - 6}{ 6} }$

$\frak{ ~~~\implies ~~~ x = \dfrac{ - 14}{ 6} }$

$\frak{ ~~~\implies ~~~ x = \dfrac{ -7}{ 3} }$

$\boxed{ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \frak{x =2 \dfrac{ -1}{ 3} }}$
