We proceed to solve the equation:
[tex]5x \: = \: 9[/tex]
- We divide by 5 the two members that make up the equation.
[tex]5x \: \div \: 5 \: = \: - 9 \: \div \: 5[/tex]
- Since it is divided by itself, it is equal to 1.
[tex]x \: = \: - 9 \: \div \: 5[/tex]
- We transform it into an improper fraction:
[tex]x \: = \: \boxed{ \bold{ - \frac{9}{5} }}[/tex]
