Answer:

x = —2/5

What is the answer to 4x-5x+9=5x-9?
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, combine like terms on the left side

4x-5x+9=5x-9

-x+9=5x-9

Subtract 9 on both sides

-x=5x-18

Subtract 5x on both sides

-6x= -18

Divide by -6 on both sides

x=3

Hope this helps! :)
