Answer :
Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Use distribution to simplify
[tex]9(x+1)=25+x\\9x+9=25+x[/tex]
2. Move like terms to their respective sides
[tex]9x+9=25+x\\9x=16+x\\8x=16[/tex]
3. Solve
[tex]8x=16\\x=2[/tex]
Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
9(x + 1) = 25 + x
9x + 9 = 25 + x [Remove brackets]
8x = 16 [subtract 1x and 9 from both sides]
x = 2
