What is the value of x? A.4 B.5 C.8 D.10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the idea is to solve \[5x-9=3x+1\] since you are told by those little hash marks that all sides are equal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is there a way to make that sound simpler?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there is not too much simpler than solving \[5x-9=3x+1\] for \(x\) takes only three steps

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a) subtract \(3x\) b) add \(9\) c) divide by 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):
