we have
[tex]5-3x=2x+9[/tex]
Solve for x
Step 1
Add [tex]3x[/tex] both sides
[tex]5-3x+3x=2x+9+3x[/tex]
[tex]5=5x+9[/tex]
Step 2
Add [tex]-9[/tex] both sides
[tex]5-9=5x+9-9[/tex]
[tex]-4=5x[/tex]
Step 3
Divide by [tex]5[/tex] both sides
[tex]-4/5=5x/5[/tex]
[tex]-4/5=x[/tex]
The value of x is equal to [tex]-4/5[/tex]
therefore
the answer is the option A
Add [tex]-9[/tex]
