Answer 1

To subtract \(3x\) from both sides of the equation \(3x + 5 = 3x - 4\), you can follow these steps:

Start with the original equation:

\[
3x + 5 = 3x - 4
\]

Now subtract \(3x\) from both sides:

\[
(3x + 5) - 3x = (3x - 4) - 3x
\]

This simplifies to:

\[
5 = -4
\]

So the final rewritten equation is:

\[
5 = -4
\]

This indicates that there is no solution since this statement is false.
