Answer:

Please mark this answer as the brainliest answer

$5 (x - 4 ) - 9 = - 2 (x - 3) \\ 5x - 20 - 9 = 2x - 6 \\ 5x - 29 = 2x - 6 \\ 5x + 2x = - 6 + 29 \\ 7x = 23 \\ x = \frac{23}{7}$

Answer 2

Answer:

5(x - 4) - 9 = -2(x - 3)

5x - 20 - 9 = - 2x + 6

5x + 2x = 6 + 20 + 9

7x = 35 = x = 35/7

x = 5
