Solve 49=-10(x-9) 9

Evaluate

49 = - 10 (x - 9) \times 9

Multiply the terms

49 = - 90 (x - 9)

Swap the sides of the equation

- 90 (x - 9) = 49

Change the sign

90 (x - 9) = - 49

Divide both sides

\frac{90 ( x - 9 )}{90} = \frac{- 49}{90}

Divide the numbers

x - 9 = \frac{- 49}{90}

Use \frac{- a}{b} = \frac{a}{- b} = - \frac{a}{b} to rewrite the fraction

x - 9 = - \frac{49}{90}

Move the constant to the right side

x = - \frac{49}{90} + 9
