Question 394447
To solve for the problem (9-2x)=19,

1) You must first remove the parenthesis around the problem.  

9-2x=19


2) Next, find like terms on both sides of the problem.  The like term in this problem is 9 and 19.  Subtract 9 from both sides of the equation

-2x = 10

3) Now, divide -2 from both sides of the equation
-2x/-2 = 10/-2

4) You will be left with your answer x= -5
