5/ 3 x + 1 / 3x equals 13 + 1 / 3 x + 8 / 3 x

x = - 12/9 ( the equation is negative)

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{5}{3}x+\frac{1}{3}=13+\frac{1}{3}x+\frac{8}{3}x

\frac{5}{3}x=3x+\frac{38}{3}

\frac{5}{3}x-3x=3x+\frac{38}{3}-3x

-\frac{4}{3}x=\frac{38}{3}

3\left(-\frac{4}{3}x\right)=\frac{38\cdot \:3}{3}

-4x=38

\frac{-4x}{-4}=\frac{38}{-4}

x=-\frac{19}{2}

-8

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is 62
