Add 2x to both side like this 9x+2x=44
Then you should get 11x=44
Lastly you divided like this 11x/11=44/11
Your answer is x=4

The answer is x = 4

Here's how I got my answer:

Step 1: Add 2x to both sides. Leaving us with
11x = 44

Step 2: Divide both sides by 11. Leaving us with
x = 11/44

Step 3: Simplify 11/44 to get your answer, x = 4
