Answer:

So, the correct option is B. 5/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to use the model to find the value of x.

Looking in the figure we can make the equation as:

5x - 2 = x + 3

as there are 5 x and ( -1 + (-1) ) = -2 on left side and 1 x and (1+1+1 =3) on right side we get the above equation.

Solving the above equation we can get the value of x

taking x values on left side and other values on the right side of equality

5x - x = 3 +2

4x = 5

x = 5/4

So, the correct option is B. 5/4.
