Question

Solve for x. 12 - x/9 = 11 (1 point)

Answer 1

Solve for X. -20 = -5 + 3x

Answer 2

To solve the equation \( 12 - \frac{x}{9} = 11 \), follow these steps:

1. Subtract 12 from both sides of the equation:

\[
-\frac{x}{9} = 11 - 12
\]

\[
-\frac{x}{9} = -1
\]

2. Multiply both sides by -1:

\[
\frac{x}{9} = 1
\]

3. Multiply both sides by 9 to solve for \( x \):

\[
x = 9
\]

Thus, the solution is \( x = 9 \).

Answer 3

To solve the equation \(-20 = -5 + 3x\), follow these steps:

1. Add 5 to both sides of the equation:

\[
-20 + 5 = 3x
\]

\[
-15 = 3x
\]

2. Divide both sides by 3 to isolate \(x\):

\[
x = \frac{-15}{3}
\]

\[
x = -5
\]

Thus, the solution is \( x = -5 \).
