Solve the equation [tex]X + 16 = 9X[/tex].

Explain.

since your solving for x you have to get x on the same side by itself. x+16=9x begin by subtracting x from both sides which gives you: 16=9x-x or 16=8x then divide by 8 from both sides so: 16/8=8/8x which equals 2=x plug 2 back into the original equation to be sure: 2+16=9(2) 18=18 so x=2

x=2 (2)+16=9(2) (2 plus 16 is equal to 9 times 2) 18=18

To solve the equation X + 16 = 9 X , subtract X from both sides and then divide by 8, giving the solution X = 2 . Verify the solution by substituting it back into the original equation. This confirms the correctness of the solution.
