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! :)

Well, there can be two answers. So, plus 3 other friends (4 people total) are sharing stickers.
To answer this, all you need to do is count by four.
4 is not greater than 7 so can not be the answer
4+4 or 8 IS greater than 7 and less than 13 so it can be the answer
4+4+4 or 12 IS ALSO GREATER THAN 7 and less than 13 so it can be the answer
4+4+4+4 is 16 and is greater than 13 so it cannot be the answer
SO it is either 8 or 12 stickers
Bruh i hate plato so much
