Answer: B
Explanation: if you look at A and try to combine like terms, you will add the -x on the right side the the one on the left, cancelling out the x on the left. then you have 0=x+0, and unless x=0, it is not true.
With B, when you add x to the -x, you cancel it out, giving you 0=0, which is true. hope it helps!
Reorder the terms 10m+(-9*-3+2m*-3)=9(m+-1)+1
combine like terms 10m+-6m=4m 27+4m = 9(m+-1)+1
solve 27+4m=-8+9m
m=7
