Answer:

Explanation:

Probably it's asking for x so you have to find x in term of a and c

ax = 9c+76

x = 9c+76/a

Answer:

Explanation:

I can see your problem. That's one of those questions where the directions are part of the problem. I think you are supposed to solve for x.

ax-76 = 9c Add 76 to both sides

ax = 9x + 76 Divide by a

x = (9x + 76)/a
