Answer:

w - 5 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

I cannot see the answer choices, but this is what I would think. It is a simple inequality.

w is the maximum weight.

If Jordan wants to be 5 pounds LIGHTER than w, it would be w - 5.

w - 5 is Jordan's ideal weight.

Therefore, w - 5 = x.

I hope I was helpful!!
