Can you solve the equation 2/3(4x-5)=8 by using the division property of equality? explain.

To solve for X you need to simplify both sides on the equation 
23(4x−5)=8

(23)(4x)+(23)(−5)=8 *Distribute*

8/3x+−10/3=8

after that you add 10/3 on both sides 

8/3x+−10/3+10/3=8+10/38/3x=34/3

finally multiply 3/8 on both sides 
(3/8) x (8/3x)=(3/8) x (34/3)

and your answer should be 
X= 17/4
