What is the second step to solving this equation?
9x - 23 = 49

Divide 9 from both sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step to solving this equation is to add 23 to both sides.

9x - 23 (+23) = 49 (+23)

9x = 49 + 23

9x = 72

The second step is to isolate the x and divide 9 from both sides:

(9x)/9 = (72)/9

x = 72/9

x = 8
