Solve for x 9 ( x + 1 ) = 25 + x

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

9(x+1)=25+x

Distributive property

9x+9=25+x

Subtract x on both sides

9x+9-x=25+x-x

8x+9=25

Subtract 9 on both sides

8x+9-9=25-9

8x=16

Divide 8 on both sides

8/8 x=16/8

x=2

Hope this helps!! :)

Please let me know if you have any question

use distributive property on all like terms and change your signs if you have a double negative or if you have positive/negative
