8/9(54x-36) +2=-3/4(-40+16x)+90x
first step is the distribution which will result in our simplified equation
48x-32+2=30-12x+90
now we need to do our subtraction. doing the subtraction will bring us closer to our answer.
-12x plus 90 will result in 48x-32+2=30+78x
-32 plus 2 will result in 48x-30=30+78x
78x -48x will then result in -30=30 +30x
-30 + 30 will give us -60=30x
-60 divided by 30 is -2
answer is x=-2
