9x - 8 = 55
Add '8' to both sides
9x - 8 + 8 = 55 + 8
Hence
9x = 63
Divide both sides by '9'
9x/9 = 63/9
x = 7
NB Remember in mathematics , the four functions add(+), subtract)-), multiply(x) and divide (/) , whatever you do to one side of the 'equals(=) , you must do to the other , in order to preserve equality. Its like a balance scales, you MUST keep it in balance.
4x + 55 = 9x + 10 55 = 5x + 10 45 = 5x x = 9
9x - 8 = 46 9x = 46 +8 9x= 54 9x/9 = 54/9 x= 6
44 = 9x +8 36=9x 4=x
x2 - 9x = -8 ∴ x2 - 9x + 8 = 0 ∴ (x - 1)(x - 8) = 0 You can then solve it as well: ∴ x ∈ {1, 8}
9x-8=7x-3 9x-7x=-3+8 2x=5 x=5/2 x=2.5
4x + 55 = 9x + 10 55 = 5x + 10 45 = 5x x = 9
9x - 8 = 46 9x = 46 +8 9x= 54 9x/9 = 54/9 x= 6
44 = 9x +8 36=9x 4=x
x2 - 9x = -8 ∴ x2 - 9x + 8 = 0 ∴ (x - 1)(x - 8) = 0 You can then solve it as well: ∴ x ∈ {1, 8}
9x-8=7x-3 9x-7x=-3+8 2x=5 x=5/2 x=2.5
63
9x + 8y = (9 x 6) + (8 x 3) = 54 + 24 = 78
9x+4 =x-7 8x=-3 x=-3/8
9x-4 = 7x+8 9x-7x = 8+4 2x = 12 x = 6
x = -8
9x - 13 = -31Add 13 to each side:9x = -18Divide each side by 9:x = -2Subtract 8 from each side:x - 8 = -10
That is an equation.Oh, you wanted to know for which values of x that equation is true? Okay...6x + 3x + 8 = 35⇔ (6x + 3x) + 8 = 35⇔ 9x + 8 = 35⇔ 9x + 8 - 8 = 35 - 8⇔ 9x + 0 = 27⇔ 9x = 27⇔ 9x / 9 = 27 / 9⇔ x = 27 / 9⇔ x = 3
