Answer

x = 7

Step-by-step solution

4 steps

Identify the equation.
The equation is given as:
$x + 2 = 9$
Isolate $x$ by subtracting 2 from both sides of the equation.
$x + 2 - 2 = 9 - 2$
Simplify both sides of the equation.
$x = 7$
Check the answer by substituting $x = 7$ back into the original equation.
$7 + 2 = 9$ $9 = 9$
The answer is correct.
