To solve the equation \( 7(5x + 9) = 18 - (x + 9) \), we start by distributing on both sides. Left side: \( 7(5x + 9) = 35x + 63 \) Right side: \( 18 - (x + 9) = 18 - x - 9 = 9 - x \) Now, rewrite the equation with these results: \( 35x + 63 = 9 - x \) Next, we add \( x \) to both sides to combine like terms: \( 35x + x + 63 = 9 \) \( 36x + 63 = 9 \) Now, subtract \( 63 \) from both sides: \( 36x = 9 - 63 \) \( 36x = -54 \) Now, divide both sides by \( 36 \): \( x = -\frac{54}{36} \) Simplifying the fraction: \( x = -\frac{3}{2} \) So the solution is: \( x = -1.5 \)
