$x=9$

First, subtract $21$ from both sides.

$2/3x - 3x = 21$

Second, add like terms. Then you should have

$-7/3x=-21$

Third, multiply both sides by $-3$ , leaving you with

$7x=63$

Fourth, divide both sides by $7$ and then you will end with

$x =9$

$color(red)(=>x=9)$

$2/3x-3x+21=0$

$=>2/3x-9/3x+21=0$

$=>-7/3x+21=0$

$=>cancel-7/3x=cancel-21$

$=>7x=63$

$color(red)(=>x=9$

~Hope this helps! :)
