1) Distribute .09 into (9000-x)……810 – .09X

2) Write the equation with the new numbers

.08X + 810 – .09X = 750

3) Add/Subtract0 “Like Terms”

I add the .09X to the other side

.08X + 810 = 750 + .09X

Now I subtract .08X to the other side

810 = 750 + .01X

Now I subtract 750 to the other side

60 = .01X

4) Solve for X

Now I divide 60 by .01 leaving X alone

60/.01 = X

X= 6000

.08x + 810 – 0.09x = 750

-.01x = -60

x = 60 / .01

Therefore; x = 6000
