x^{2}-bx+9=x^{2}-6x+9
Use binomial theorem \left(a-b\right)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2} to expand \left(x-3\right)^{2}.
-bx+9=x^{2}-6x+9-x^{2}
Subtract x^{2} from both sides.
-bx+9=-6x+9
Combine x^{2} and -x^{2} to get 0.
-bx=-6x+9-9
Subtract 9 from both sides.
-bx=-6x
Subtract 9 from 9 to get 0.
\left(-x\right)b=-6x
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-x\right)b}{-x}=-\frac{6x}{-x}
Divide both sides by -x.
b=-\frac{6x}{-x}
Dividing by -x undoes the multiplication by -x.
b=6
Divide -6x by -x.
x^{2}-bx+9=x^{2}-6x+9
Use binomial theorem \left(a-b\right)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2} to expand \left(x-3\right)^{2}.
x^{2}-bx+9-x^{2}=-6x+9
Subtract x^{2} from both sides.
-bx+9=-6x+9
Combine x^{2} and -x^{2} to get 0.
-bx+9+6x=9
Add 6x to both sides.
-bx+6x=9-9
Subtract 9 from both sides.
-bx+6x=0
Subtract 9 from 9 to get 0.
\left(-b+6\right)x=0
Combine all terms containing x.
\left(6-b\right)x=0
The equation is in standard form.
x=0
Divide 0 by 6-b.
