Answer:

x = 13 + y

Explanation:

Simplify:

-4 + x = y + 9

Reorder the terms:

-4 + x = 9 + y

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

Add 4 to each side of the equation

-4 + 4 + x = 9 + 4 + y

Combine like terms: -4 + 4 = 0

0 + x = 9 + 4 + y

x = 9 + 4 + y

9 + 4 = 13x = 13 + y

Answer:

x = 13 + y

Answer:

x<13

Explanation:

To solve this, we want to have the isolate the variable x on the left side, by itself without a coefficient. All we have to do to do this is add 4 to both sides, cancelling out the -4 and getting x<13
