Answer:

[tex]x=\frac{7}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The question states product so we know that we're multiplying.

A number and 5, and since the unknown variable is now [tex]x[/tex] we have [tex]5x[/tex] so far.

Then we need to make it so that it is 2 more.

[tex]5x+2[/tex]

Equals 9.

[tex]5x+2=9[/tex]

Solve for the unknown number.

[tex]5x=7[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{7}{5}[/tex]
