Answer:

x = 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Ok, so first, write out the given equation

2x+9 = 5x+4

2. Next, combine like terms by subtracting 5x from 2x.

-3x + 9 = 4

3. Then, subtract 9 from 4, since whatever you do to one side you have to do to the other.

-3x = -5

4. Finally, divide both sides by -3.

x = 5/3 <-------Answer

You're done! Hope you have a great day!
