Tristan Ross · Answer 1

(4/9) (x + 13) = 8

multiply both sides by (9/4)

(9/4) (4/9) (x + 13) = 8 (9/4)

x + 13 = 8

subtract 13 from both sides

x = - 5

Ashley Jennings · Answer 2

4/9 (x + 13) = 8

1. Divide both sides by 4/9.

4/9 / 4/9 (x + 13) = 8 / 4/9

x + 13 = 18

2. Subtract 13.

x + 13 - 13 = 18 - 13

x = 5

Answer : x = 5
