Solve for x:4x/9 = 18 (1 point)

Question

18

8

4.5

40.5

Answer 1

To solve for x, you need to isolate the variable by multiplying both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 4/9, which is 9/4.

4x/9 * (9/4) = 18 * (9/4)

The 9's cancel out on the left side and simplify to:

x = (9/1) * (18/4)

Simplifying the right side by multiplying the numerators and the denominators gives:

x = 162/4

Dividing 162 by 4:

x = 40.5

Therefore, the solution is x = 40.5.
