Question

If 9x + 2a =ac - bx, then x equals

Answer 1

Answer:
`x=\bold{(a(c-2))/(9+b)}`

Explanation:

9x + 2a = ac - bx

9x = ac - bx - 2a subtracted 2a from both sides

9x + bx = ac - 2a added bx to both sides

x(9 + b) = a(c - 2) factored out x from the left and a from the right

`x=\large\boxed{(a(c-2))/(9+b)}\\` divided both sides by 9+b
