What is the solution of the equation x + 23 = 9

?(1 point)

1 answer

To solve the equation \( x + 23 = 9 \), you need to isolate \( x \).

Here are the steps:

  1. Subtract 23 from both sides of the equation:

\[ x + 23 - 23 = 9 - 23 \]

  1. Simplify:

\[ x = -14 \]

So, the solution of the equation is \( x = -14 \).
