If \(9(x - 9) = -11\), then \(x = ?\)

A. \(-\frac{92}{9}\)

B. \(-\frac{20}{9}\)

C. \(-\frac{11}{9}\)

D. \(-\frac{2}{9}\)

E. \(\frac{70}{9}\)

[9(x - 9) = -11\ 9x-81=-11\ 9x=70\ x=\frac{70}{9}

To solve the equation 9(x − 9) = − 11, we first need to distribute the 9 on the left side of the equation:
9x - 81 = -11
Next, we add 81 to both sides of the equation to isolate the term with the variable x:
9x = 70
Finally, we divide both sides by 9 to solve for x:
x = 70 / 9
The final answer is x = 70/9, which corresponds to option E.
