Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

6 - 9x = 5x - 9x + 16

Step 2: Solve for x

  1. Combine like terms:                    6 - 9x = -4x + 16
  2. Add 9x on both sides:                 6 = 5x + 16
  3. Subtract 16 on both sides:           -10 = 5x
  4. Divide 5 on both sides:               -2 = x
  5. Rewrite:                                        x = -2

Answer:

x= -2

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the value of x, we need to isolate it

first add 9x to both sides so that the equation looks like this

6 = 5x +16

then we need to subtract 16 from both sides to get

-10 = 5x

then if we divide everything by 5, you find that x = -2

hope this helps :)
