i gotchu, x = 14.4

8/x = 5/9 (solve for x)

first you'd cross multiply (property of multiplication)

(8)(9) = (5)x

72 = 5x

then you flip your equation (communitive property)

5x = 72

then you need to eliminate five so you'd divide by 5 (inverse operation)

5x/5 72/5

x = 72/5

so x would be 14.4 since 72/5 is 14.4

(or just 14 since if you rounded it your answer would be 14)
