Answer:

x= 13

Explanation:

−4/9(18x − 36) = −88

we need to solve the equation for x


(-4)/(9)(18x - 36) = -88

First we remove the fraction -4/9

Multiply by -9/4 on both sides


(-9)/(4)*(-4)/(9)(18x - 36) = -88*(-9)/(4)

18x -36 = 198

Now add 36 on both sides

18x = 234

Divide both sides by 18

x = 13
