To solve the equation, we can start by isolating the variable x.
We have:
-22 - x/9 = -19
First, let's multiply both sides of the equation by 9 to get rid of the fraction:
9(-22 - x/9) = 9(-19)
Simplifying, we get:
-198 - x = -171
Next, let's move the constant term (-198) to the other side of the equation:
- x = -171 + 198
Simplifying further, we have:
- x = 27
To solve for x, we multiply both sides of the equation by -1:
x = -27
Therefore, the solution to the equation -22 - x/9 = -19 is x = -27.
-22-x/9=-19
