$q = 4$

$1.83(q+1) = 9.15$

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!
