Solve 0.9*18left(x+1right)-18x=36

$$0.9 \cdot 18 \left( x+1 \right) -18x = 36$$

Solve for x

$$x=-11$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply 0.9 and 18 to get 16.2.

$$16.2\left(x+1\right)-18x=36$$

Use the distributive property to multiply 16.2 by x+1.

$$16.2x+16.2-18x=36$$

Combine 16.2x and -18x to get -1.8x.

$$-1.8x+16.2=36$$

Subtract 16.2 from both sides.

$$-1.8x=36-16.2$$

Subtract 16.2 from 36 to get 19.8.

$$-1.8x=19.8$$

Divide both sides by -1.8.

$$x=\frac{19.8}{-1.8}$$

Expand \frac{19.8}{-1.8} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.

$$x=\frac{198}{-18}$$

Divide 198 by -18 to get -11.

$$x=-11$$
