Given the statement:

"Five added to 4 times a number is equal to 9 less than 2 times the number."

Transforming each part of the statement into an equation, we get:

a.) Five added to 4 times a number:

$\text{4x + 5}$

b.) 9 less than 2 times the number:

$\text{ 2x - 9}$

Since it's been said that equation a is equal (=) to equation b, let's complete the equation.

We get,

$\text{ 4x + 5 = 2x - 9}$
