73=((9)/(10)x)+19

To solve x:

1. Substract 19 in both sides of the equation:


\begin{gathered} 73-19=((9)/(10)x)+19-19 \\ \\ 54=(9)/(10)x \end{gathered}

2. Multiply both sides of the ewuation by 10/9:


\begin{gathered} 54\cdot(10)/(9)=(9)/(10)x\cdot(10)/(9) \\ \\ (540)/(9)=x \\ \\ 60=x \end{gathered}

Then, the value of x is 60 (x=60)
