There seems to be something missing. Either a missing diagram or more context to the problem, or perhaps more instructions. I'm not exactly sure.
Anyways, if you simply need to solve the equation for x, then...
3x+7 = 5x-9
3x+7-3x = 5x-9-3x ... subtract 3x from both sides
7 = 2x-9
7+9 = 2x-9+9 ... add 9 to both sides
16 = 2x
2x = 16
2x/2 = 16/2 ... divide both sides by 2
x = 8
I'm assuming after this point, you'll use x somehow to determine the length of segment AD. Unfortunately there isn't enough info provided to do that, but I'll let you take over from here.

Answer:
A. Use inverse relationships to "undo" the operation.

I took the , and this was the correct answer. :)
Point slope formula is y= mx+b. To find the slope, or m, you need to find the "rise over run". rise = y coordinates, run = x coordinates. And the slope equation is y1-y2/x1-x2. So let's say the first point is (x1,y1) and the second is (x2,y2). that would be 35-(-31)/5-(-6)= 66/11 or 6/1 aka up six, across one. That is your slope. So far you have y=6x+b, next plug (5,35) into that equation and solve for b (aka the y intercept). So: 35=6(5)+b. 35-30=b, b=5. So your final equation is y=6x+5.
