The expression can be simplified as follows:
1/2 + 1/11(x + 9)
Multiplying the fraction 1/11 by (x + 9) gives:
1/2 + (1/11)(x + 9)
1/2 + (x + 9)/11
To combine the fractions, the denominators must be the same:
1/2 + (x + 9)/11 * 11/11
11/22 + (x + 9)/11
To combine the fractions, they must have the same denominator:
11/22 + (x + 9)/11 * 2/2
11/22 + 2(x + 9)/22
Now, the fractions have the same denominator, so we can add them together:
(11 + 2(x + 9))/22
Expanding the brackets:
(11 + 2x + 18)/22
Combining like terms:
(2x + 29)/22
So the simplified expression is (2x + 29)/22.
1/2+1/11(x+9)
