A.) After adding 4 to both sides, the equation is Negative two-thirds x equals negative 2.
B.) After adding 4 to both sides, the equation is Negative two-thirds x equals negative 10.
C.) The equation can be solved for using exactly one more step by multiplying both sides by Negative three-halves.
D.) The equation can be solved for x using exactly one more step by dividing both sides by Negative two-thirds.
E.) The equation can be solved for x using exactly one more step by multiplying both sides by Negative two-thirds.

-4 - (2/3)x = -6
-(2/3)x = -2   {added 4 to each side}
x = 3   {divided each side by -2/3 or multiplied by the reciprocal -3/2}}
