Cross-Multiply: Cross-multiply to eliminate the fractions.To solve the equation (9x=x9), we can cross-multiply to get rid of the fractions. This means we will multiply x by x and 9 by 9.Calculation: x×x=9×9
Simplify Equation: Simplify the equation.After cross-multiplying, we get x2=81.
Find Square Root: Find the square root of both sides of the equation.To solve for x, we take the square root of both sides of the equation. Remember that taking the square root of a number gives us two possible values: one positive and one negative.Calculation: x=±81
Simplify Square Root: Simplify the square root.The square root of 81 is 9. Therefore, we have two possible solutions for x.Calculation: x=±9
