Answer:

B; x = 8

Explanation:

I think I understand what the picture is saying. So,

On the left hand side, the x's and +1's represent the following expression:


2x +5.

On the right hand side, the x's and -1's represent the following expression:


3x -3.

Put these two together and you get the following equation:


2x +5 =
3x -3

First, Solve for x:

8 = x

So, when solving the equation, x is equal to 8
