Question

What is value of x in the multi-step equation
22-9x=9x+10

Answer 1

x= 2/3

Explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

22−9x=9x+10

22+−9x=9x+10

−9x+22=9x+10

Step 2: Subtract 9x from both sides.

−9x+22−9x=9x+10−9x

−18x+22=10

Step 3: Subtract 22 from both sides.

−18x+22−22=10−22

−18x=−12

Step 4: Divide both sides by -18.

x=2/3
