Full solution

Q. Solve for xx.\newline8x=1+9x\sqrt{8x} = \sqrt{1 + 9x}\newlinex=x = _____
  1. Square Roots Elimination: First, we need to eliminate the square roots by squaring both sides of the equation.\newline(8x)2=(1+9x)2(\sqrt{8x})^2 = (\sqrt{1 + 9x})^2\newlineThis simplifies to:\newline8x=1+9x8x = 1 + 9x
  2. Isolating Variable xx: Next, we need to isolate the variable xx. To do this, we will move all terms containing xx to one side of the equation.8x9x=18x - 9x = 1This simplifies to:x=1-x = 1
  3. Solving for x: To solve for x, we need to divide both sides of the equation by -1").\(\newline\$x = \frac{1}{-1}\)\(\newline\)This simplifies to:\(\newline\)\(x = -1\)
