Answer:

6 + 3 times x is = to 4-5 times x

Explanation:

So basically 3 times a number means 3x what u needa do is solve 4-5 which is 1 and then that makes 1x so add 6+3 and then thats 9x now u needa divide 9 by itself to isolate x and divide 9 by 1 thats 9 x is a inviisible 1 and add 1+9 which is 10
