x = -3
x = 9

9 + x / 2 = 9
x = -3
x = 9
To solve the equation ( 9 + frac{x}{2} = 9 ), let’s isolate ( x ).
1. Start by subtracting 9 from both sides:
[
frac{x}{2} = 9 – 9
]
[
frac{x}{2} = 0
]
2. Next, multiply both sides by 2 to solve for ( x ):
[
x = 0 times 2
]
[
x = 0
]
The solution to the equation is ( x = 0 ), which is not one of your options (-3 or 9). Neither of those values satisfies the equation.
