Answer:

a.x=4

b.x=4

c.(b)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

9-x=5

a. First we adding x on both sides we get

9-x+x=5+x

9=5+x

Now, subtract 5 on both sides we get

9-5=x

x=4

b.

We are subtracting 9 from both sides we get

9-9-x=5-9

-x=-4

x=4

We can solve equation both approach a and b

But I prefer (b) because in approach (b)

There are only 3 step in which we can get answer but in approach (a) we can get answer in 4 steps .

Hence, I prefer approach (b)
