Answer:

x=-8

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+9=x-23

Add 23 on both sides

23 cancels on right side of the equation

5x+32=x is what you have now

Now subtract 5x on both sides

5x cancels on left side of the equation

32=-4x is your new equation

Divide -4 on both sides of the equation

-8=x is now your answer

Hope this helps!!
