I’m not sure how the fraction is meant to be read. Two likely interpretations and their solutions:
1) If the equation is 9 = 8 + 1/(9x + 32)
9 − 8 = 1/(9x + 32) → 1 = 1/(9x + 32) → 9x + 32 = 1 → 9x = −31 → x = −31/9.
2) If the equation is 9 = 81/(9x + 32)
9(9x + 32) = 81 → 81x + 288 = 81 → 81x = −207 → x = −207/81 = −23/9.
Which of these matches the problem you meant? If neither, please paste the equation using plain-line text (e.g., 9 = 81/(9x+32) or 9 = 8 + 1/(9x+32)).
