Hi there!

Answer:

Subtraction property of equality.

x=4

The answer must have a positive sign.*

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtraction property of equality

a-c=b-c

First, you switch sides of an equation.

\(x+5=9\)

Then, you subtract by 5 from both sides of an equation.

\(x+5-5=9-5\)

Finally, you can also subtract by the numbers.

\(9-5=4\)

Answer: \(x=4\)

Hope this helps!

Thanks!
