Question

$$- 243 = - 9 ( 10 + x )$$

Solve for x

$x=17$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Divide both sides by $-9$.

$$\frac{-243}{-9}=10+x$$

Divide $-243$ by $-9$ to get $27$.

$$27=10+x$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$10+x=27$$

Subtract $10$ from both sides.

$$x=27-10$$

Subtract $10$ from $27$ to get $17$.

$$x=17$$
