10(x-9)=7

To solve the equation \(10(x - 9) = 7\), follow these steps:

1. Distribute the 10 on the left side: \[ 10x - 90 = 7 \]

2. Add 90 to both sides to isolate the term with \(x\): \[ 10x = 7 + 90 \] \[ 10x = 97 \]

3. Divide both sides by 10 to solve for \(x\): \[ x = \frac{97}{10} \]

4. Simplifying gives: \[ x = 9.7 \]

Thus, the solution is \(x = 9.7\).
