Question

Find the value of $x$ which satisfies the linear equation $9(x-9)=-11$

• A. $-\frac{92}{9}$
• B. $-\frac{20}{9}$
• C. $-\frac{11}{9}$
• D. $-\frac{2}{9}$
• E. $\frac{70}{9}$

Answer 1

Answer: (E)

$\frac{70}{9}$

Given, $9(x-9)=-11$

$\Rightarrow 9x-81=-11$

$\Rightarrow 9x=-11+81$

$\Rightarrow 9x=70$

$\Rightarrow x=\frac{70}{9}$
