To solve the equation \( 22 = -7s + 9s \), we can first simplify the right side:
\[ -7s + 9s = (9 - 7)s = 2s \]
So the equation becomes:
\[ 22 = 2s \]
Next, we can solve for \( s \) by dividing both sides by 2:
\[ s = \frac{22}{2} = 11 \]
Thus, the value of \( s \) that is a solution to the equation is:
\[ \boxed{11} \]
