Solve for x.

5x-9y=z

1 answer

To solve for x, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation. We can do this by adding 9y to both sides of the equation.

5x - 9y + 9y = z + 9y

The -9y on the left side cancels out, and we are left with:

5x = z + 9y

To solve for x, we can divide both sides of the equation by 5:

(5x)/5 = (z + 9y)/5

x = (z + 9y)/5

Therefore, x = (z + 9y)/5.
