These equations seem tricky, but aren't as hard as you think. Just solve it like you are regularly adding fractions.

Your common denominator is 9x + 9, so

1/(9x+9) = 36/(9x + 9) - (5x + 5)/9

1 - 36 + 5x + 5 / 9x - 9
30x - 30/9x - 9
10x-10/3x - 3
10(x-1)/3(x-1)
10/3

Hope this helped!

Tell whether the angle is adjacent or vertical. Then find the value of x

Yuki888 [10]

These angles are adjacent angels.
adjacent angels- have a common side and the same vertex.
(pictured below)

To solve this we set the sum of both angles equal to 180°. We do this because they are two adjacent angles on a straight line. The measure of a straight lines angle is 180°.

180= 5x + (x+96)
180=6x+96
84= 6x
x=14
