#q = 4#

#1.83(q+1) = 9.15#

Divide both sides by #color(blue)1.83#:
#(1.83(q+1))/color(blue)(1.83) = 9.15/color(blue)1.83#

#q + 1 = 5#

Subtract #color(blue)1# from both sides:
#q + 1 quadcolor(blue)(-quad1) = 5 quadcolor(blue)(-quad1)#

Therefore,
#q = 4#

Hope this helps!

#q=4#

Recall that we want to isolate #q#. Let's start by dividing both sides by #1.83# to get

#q+1=5#

Subtracting #1# from both sides, we get

#q=4#

Hope this helps!
