Answer:

[tex]x=3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, lets write this equation out

[tex]\frac{2}{3} x+9=11[/tex]

Now we can begin solving for x.

First we need to subtract 9 from each side

[tex]\frac{2}{3} x+9=11\\\\\frac{2}{3} x=2[/tex]

Now, we must divide by [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]. Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal, so instead I will multiply by [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{2}{3} x=2\\\\x=2(\frac{3}{2} )\\\\x=\frac{6}{2} \\\\x=3[/tex]
