x=18
steps:

subtract 4/9 from both sides and you have
4/9x=8

then divide 8 by 4/9 (or multiply by the reciprocal 9/4)

9x8= 72
4x1 =4

72/4 simplifies down to 18
x=18

Hope this Helped!!

x in (-oo:+oo)

(8/9)*x = (4/9)*x+8 // - (4/9)*x+8

(8/9)*x-((4/9)*x)-8 = 0

(8/9)*x+(-4/9)*x-8 = 0

4/9*x-8 = 0 // + 8

4/9*x = 8 // : 4/9

x = 8/4/9

x = 18

x = 18
