Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

1/2x + 13 = 9

Step 2: Solve for x

  1. Subtract 13 on both sides: 1/2x = -4
  2. Multiply both sides by 2: x = -8

Step 3: Check

Plug in x to verify it's a solution.

1/2(-8) + 13 = 9

-4 + 13 = 9

9 = 9

Answer:

-8

Step-by-step explanation:

you use inverse operation

meaning opposite signs

subtract -13 from 13 cross it out

subtract 13 from 9

you get 1/2x=-4

divide 1/2 on both sides

-4 divided by 1/2 =-8
