The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
(4+x*9)-36 = 40
Expand brackets in the left part
4+x*9-36 = 40
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-32 + 9*x = 40
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$9 x = 72$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 9
x = 72 / (9)
We get the answer: x = 8
