Answer: The value of x is 45

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation x/3-6=9 is a linear equation, where x/3 is the same as one-third of x.

Thus it is easily simplified as such:

x/3-6=9

Collect like terms

x/3 = 9 + 6

x/3 = 15

i.e (1/3) of X = 15

To get the value of x, cross multiply

x = 3 x 15

x = 45

Thus, the value of x is 45
