Answer:
Simplifying
x = 9
Explanation:
Simplifying
9x + -1 = 80
Reorder the terms:
-1 + 9x = 80
Solving
-1 + 9x = 80
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '1' to each side of the equation.
-1 + 1 + 9x = 80 + 1
Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0
0 + 9x = 80 + 1
9x = 80 + 1
Combine like terms: 80 + 1 = 81
9x = 81
Divide each side by '9'.
x = 9
