Solve the equation provided in the image.

Let's solve the equation step by step:

The equation from the image is:
$$4x + 5x + 4.75 = 16.4$$

First, we combine the like terms on the left side of the equation:
$$9x + 4.75 = 16.4$$

Next, we subtract 4.75 from both sides of the equation to isolate the term with 'x':
$$9x = 16.4 - 4.75$$
$$9x = 11.65$$

Finally, we divide both sides by 9 to solve for 'x':
$$x = \frac{11.65}{9}$$
$$x \approx 1.2944$$

Rounding to two decimal places, we get:
$$x \approx 1.29$$

Answer: x ≈ 1.29
