✩ Step-by-step explanation:

✧・゚: *✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:*

✺ Subtract
4 from
9 to get
5:


  • -3x+5=x+3+2x

✺ Combine
x and
2x to get
3x:


  • -3x+5=3x+3

✺ Subtract
3x from both sides:


  • -3x+5-3x=3

✺ Combine
-3x and
-3x to get
-6x:


  • -6x+5=3

✺ Subtract
5 from both sides:


  • -6x=3-5

✺ Subtract
5 from
3 to get
-2:


  • -6x=-2

✺ Divide both sides by
-6:


  • x=(-2)/(-6)

✺ Reduce the fraction
(-2)/(-6) to lowest terms by canceling out the common factor,
-2:


  • x=(1)/(3)

-OR-

✺ Reduce the fraction
(-2)/(-6) to lowest terms by dividing the numerator and denominator:


  • x=0.333333333 (This is a repeating decimal.)

✩ Answer:
