Answer:

x= -88

Explanation:

We move all terms to the left:

x/4+9- (-13)=0

Then we add all the numbers together, and all the variables:

x/4+22=0

We multiply all the terms by the denominator:

x+22*4=0

We all all the numbers together, and all the variables:

x+88=0

We move all the terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right:

x= -88
