Answer:
8x+19=9x+9
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
(8x + 19) = (9x + 9)
Reorder the terms:
(19 + 8x) = (9x + 9)
Remove parenthesis around (19 + 8x)
19 + 8x = (9x + 9)
Reorder the terms:
19 + 8x = (9 + 9x)
Remove parenthesis around (9 + 9x)
19 + 8x = 9 + 9x
Solving
19 + 8x = 9 + 9x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-9x' to each side of the equation.
19 + 8x + -9x = 9 + 9x + -9x
Combine like terms: 8x + -9x = -1x
19 + -1x = 9 + 9x + -9x
Combine like terms: 9x + -9x = 0
19 + -1x = 9 + 0
19 + -1x = 9
Add '-19' to each side of the equation.
19 + -19 + -1x = 9 + -19
Combine like terms: 19 + -19 = 0
0 + -1x = 9 + -19
-1x = 9 + -19
Combine like terms: 9 + -19 = -10
-1x = -10
Divide each side by '-1'.
x = 10
Simplifying
x = 10
