To solve the equation 1/3(6x-9) = -33, we can first simplify the left side of the equation.

1/3 multiplied by (6x-9) is (6x-9)/3, which can be further simplified to 2x-3.

Therefore, the equation becomes 2x-3 = -33.

Adding 3 to both sides of the equation:
2x-3+3 = -33+3
2x = -30

Dividing both sides of the equation by 2:
2x/2 = -30/2
x = -15

Thus, the solution to the equation is x = -15.
