Answer:

x = 9

Explanation:

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

Add '-9' to each side of the equation.

9 + -9 + -1x = 0 + -9

Combine like terms: 9 + -9 = 0

0 + -1x = 0 + -9

-1x = 0 + -9

Combine like terms: 0 + -9 = -9

-1x = -9

Divide each side by '-1'.

x = 9
