Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

6 - 9x = 5x - 9x + 16

Step 2: Solve for x

1. Combine like terms:                    6 - 9x = -4x + 16
2. Add 9x on both sides:                 6 = 5x + 16
3. Subtract 16 on both sides:           -10 = 5x
4. Divide 5 on both sides:               -2 = x
5. Rewrite:                                        x = -2

Answer 2

Answer:

$x=-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$We\ are\ given,\\6-9x=5x-9x+16\\6-9x=-4x+16\ [Resolving\ like\ terms\ in\ RHS]\\-9x+4x=16-6[Transposing\ variables\ to\ LHS\ and\ constants\ to\ RHS]\\-5x=10[Simplifying]\\x=\frac{10}{-5}[Dividing]\\x=-2 [Finding\ the\ value\ of\ x]$
