Leia Davies · Answer 1

x = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

9 (x + 1) = 25 + x

9x + 9 = 25 + x

Subtract x from both sides:

9x - x + 9 = 25

Subtract 9 from both sides:

9x - x = 25 - 9

8x = 16

x = 16/8 = 2.

Jessica Curtis · Answer 2

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

9 (x + 1) = 25 + x ← distribute parenthesis on left side

9x + 9 = 25 + x (subtract x from both sides)

8x + 9 = 25 (subtract 9 from both sides)

8x = 16 (divide both sides by 8)

x = 2

9 (x + 1) = 25 + xx = 2x = 3x = 4X11

9 (x + 1) = 25 + x

x = 2

x = 3

x = 4
