5=6x=9 Used the equation editor
6x=5-9
6X=-4
X=-2/3
To solve the equation 5 = 6x + 9, you need to isolate the variable x. Here's the step-by-step process:
1. Subtract 9 from both sides of the equation:
5 - 9 = 6x + 9 - 9
-4 = 6x
2. Divide both sides of the equation by 6 to solve for x:
(-4) / 6 = (6x) / 6
-2/3 = x
So the solution to the equation 5 = 6x + 9 is x = -2/3.
