Answer:
The answer is x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
1. First you need to distribute the 3/4 * (x + 8). This looks like (3/4) * (x) + (3/4) * (8) = 9
2. Next you simplify the distributed equation, 3/4x + 6 = 9
3. Now subtract 6 from both sides, 3/4x = 3
4. Multiply both sides by 4/3, 4/x * 3/4x = 3 * 4/3
5. Simplify, x = 4
