Answer 1

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

5 = 9 - 2x

=> 9 - 2x = 5

=> - 2x = 5 - 9

=> - 2x = -4

=> x = -4/-2

=> x = 2

Answer 2

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

5=9-2x swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side

9-2x=5 subtract 9 from both sides

2x=-4 divide both sides by -2

x=-4/-2 divide -4 by -2 to get 2

x=2
