Hi. My math teacher gave us a huge assignment but didn't explain anything to us... Please help me :)

Kapil needed to buy a long wooden beam. he went to two sawmills that each charge an initial fee plus an additional fee for each meter of wood. the following equation gives the price (in dollars) of a wooden beam from the first sawmill as a function of its length (in meters). p = 5+20xp=5+20x

One positive number is 9 more than twice another. if their product is 95, find the numbers

Can some one explain how to slove specifically, what is the value of x? 0.9(x+1.4)-2.3+0.1x=1.6 enter the answer as a decimal in the box. x= ?
