The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \(2x - 5 = (x + 4) + (3x - 9)\) using the trial and error method, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Simplify the Equation First, simplify the right-hand side (RHS) of the equation. \[ (x + 4) + (3x - 9) = x + 4 + 3x - 9 = 4x - 5 \] So, the equation becomes: \[ 2x - 5 = 4x - 5 \] ### Step 2: Rearrange the Equation Next, we can rearrange the equation to isolate \(x\). \[ 2x - 5 + 5 = 4x - 5 + 5 \] \[ 2x = 4x \] ### Step 3: Solve for \(x\) Now, let's move \(4x\) to the left side: \[ 2x - 4x = 0 \] \[ -2x = 0 \] Dividing both sides by -2 gives: \[ x = 0 \] ### Step 4: Verify the Solution Now we will verify if \(x = 0\) satisfies the original equation. Substituting \(x = 0\) into the left-hand side (LHS): \[ LHS = 2(0) - 5 = -5 \] Now substituting \(x = 0\) into the right-hand side (RHS): \[ RHS = (0 + 4) + (3(0) - 9) = 4 + (-9) = 4 - 9 = -5 \] Since LHS = RHS = -5, our solution is verified. ### Final Solution The solution to the equation \(2x - 5 = (x + 4) + (3x - 9)\) is: \[ \boxed{0} \]
