    E. 3x + 6 = 2x + 9

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The total number of charms that Lydia has in term of x

    6 + 3x

    The total number of charms that Claudia has in term of x

    9 + 2x

    Since they have the same number of charms, we can set these 2 equations above equals to each other

    6 + 3x = 9 + 2x

    x = 9-6 = 3

    So E is the correct answer
