8\left(x+450\right)=9000+2x
Variable x cannot be equal to -450 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x+450.
8x+3600=9000+2x
Use the distributive property to multiply 8 by x+450.
8x+3600-2x=9000
Subtract 2x from both sides.
6x+3600=9000
Combine 8x and -2x to get 6x.
6x=9000-3600
Subtract 3600 from both sides.
6x=5400
Subtract 3600 from 9000 to get 5400.
x=\frac{5400}{6}
Divide both sides by 6.
x=900
Divide 5400 by 6 to get 900.
