Hi!
<h3>Let's do the first step (add 2x). </h3>
5 + 3x + 2x = -2x + 2x + 9
<em>5 + 5x = 9</em>
<h3>Our goal is to isolate x on one side, so the next step would be to subtract 5 (or add -5).</h3>
5 + -5 + 5x = 9 + -5
<u><em>5x = 4</em></u>
<h2>The answer is B. add -5</h2><h3><em>And if you want to finish solving, you would divide by 5 on both sides.</em></h3>
5x/5 = 4/5
x = 0.8
Hope this helps! :)

Answer:
C. 4m + 3 > 75
Step-by-step explanation:
There is only one private chef's table so this remains constant at 3. There are m number of tables that will seat 4 people so 4 is multiplied by m.
The answer is

.
Explanation:
In order to subtract the fractions, we must make them like fractions. To do this, the denominators must be the same by multiplying (only). Since the first fraction is

, 3 can be multiplied by 2 to get 6, which is the other fraction, we can multiply it. Whatever you do to the denominator you must do to the numerator. Now multiply 2 by the numerator (10) to get

. Now we can subtract the fractions

and

to get 13/6. Since this fraction is not in mixed fraction form yet, we must do that first. goes into 13 twice, so the whole number is 2 and there is still 1 left, making the fraction

. Therefore, the difference is 2
