Answer:

x = -24ySimplifying

15y + (x + 9y) = 0

Remove parenthesis around (x + 9y)

15y + x + 9y = 0

Reorder the terms:

x + 15y + 9y = 0

Combine like terms: 15y + 9y = 24y

x + 24y = 0

Solving

x + 24y = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-24y' to each side of the equation.

x + 24y + -24y = 0 + -24y

Combine like terms: 24y + -24y = 0

x + 0 = 0 + -24y

x = 0 + -24y

Remove the zero:

x = -24y

Simplifying

x = -24y
