To find the value of x, we can solve the equation −3x + 9 = −19.
First, we can subtract 9 from both sides of the equation to isolate the variable term:
-3x + 9 - 9 = -19 - 9
-3x = -28
Next, we divide both sides of the equation by -3 to solve for x:
-3x / -3 = -28 / -3
x = 28/3
Therefore, the value of x is 28/3, which can be written as 9 and 1/3. So the correct answer is 9 1/3 or 9 and 1/3.

I apologize for the mistake. Let's solve the equation again:
-3x + 9 = -19
To isolate the variable term, we can subtract 9 from both sides of the equation:
-3x = -19 - 9
-3x = -28
Next, we divide both sides of the equation by -3 to solve for x:
-3x / -3 = -28 / -3
x = 28/3
Therefore, the value of x is 28/3, which can be also written as 9 and 1/3. So the correct answer is 9 1/3 or 9 and 1/3. I apologize for any confusion caused by my previous incorrect response.
