X cannot equal itself minus 5, in the same way if we replace it by let's say, 6...
6 does not equal 6-5 (1)........ and by the way in this specific equation 6 is just an example it does not matter what you replace it with, x can never = x-5
Step-by-step explanation: The linear function is y = -5/3 + 5, which means that the slope is 5/3. The fact that the slope is ascending to the left also eliminates the first two choices.
