Correct Answer: D

Choice Dhoice C is the correct answer. This is a multi-step equation.

  1. Start with the equation: 3(x5)+4=193(x - 5) + 4 = 19
  2. Subtract 4 from both sides: 3(x5)=153(x - 5) = 15
  3. Divide by 3: x5=5x - 5 = 5
  4. Add 5 to both sides: x=10x = 10
  5. Verify: 3(105)+4=3(5)+4=15+4=193(10 - 5) + 4 = 3(5) + 4 = 15 + 4 = 19

Choice Dhoice C is incorrect because calculation error.
