Answer:

  x = 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 3/x+4, then multiply by x/5:

  [tex]\dfrac{3}{x}+9=\dfrac{7}{x}+4\\\\5=\dfrac{4}{x}\\\\\boxed{x=\dfrac{4}{5}}[/tex]

_____

If you meant 3/(x+9) = 7/(x+4), you need to write it with parentheses around the denominator. (In that case, x=-12.75.)
