To solve for $x$, we start with the given equation $y = -2x - 9$. We want to isolate $x$, so we add 9 to both sides to get $y + 9 = -2x$. Then, we divide both sides by -2 to isolate $x$, resulting in $x = -\frac{y + 9}{2}$.

Solve the Equation for X y=−2x−9y = - 2 x - 9y=−2x−9

Solve the Equation for X $y = - 2 x - 9$
