Answer 1

None of the provided responses are correct. Let's solve the equation.

To solve for x, we need to isolate the variable on one side of the equation.

First, let's subtract 9 from both sides of the equation:

114x + 9 - 9 = 31 - 9

This simplifies to:

114x = 22

Now, let's divide both sides of the equation by 114:

(114x)/114 = 22/114

This simplifies to:

x = 22/114

Therefore, the solution is x = 22/114.
