Answer:

The correct option is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

[tex]3x-\frac{1}{5}-\frac{2}{9}x=\frac{124}{5}[/tex]

If two terms have the same variables having same powers, then they are known as like terms.

In the given equation [tex]3x[/tex] and [tex]-\frac{2}{9}x[/tex] are like terms.

So, when we simplify the given equation by combining like terms. we need to combined [tex]3x[/tex] and [tex]-\frac{2}{9}x[/tex] .

Therefore the correct option is C.
