Answer:

[tex] \boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{x = - 4}}}}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \sf{3x - 5 = 2x - 9}[/tex]

Move 2x to left hand side and change it's sign

⇒[tex] \sf{3x - 2x - 5 = - 9}[/tex]

Move 5 to right hand side and change it's sign

⇒[tex] \sf{3x - 2x = - 9 + 5}[/tex]

Collect like terms

⇒[tex] \sf{x = - 9 + 5}[/tex]

Calculate

⇒[tex] \sf{x = - 4}[/tex]

Hope I helped!

Best regards!!
