Answer:

Explanation:

Subtract 4x from both sides

24 = 5x + 1 - 4x

Simplify 5x + 1 - 4x to x + 1

24 = x + 1

Subtract 1 from both sides

24 - 1 = x

Simplify 24 - 1 to 23

23 = x

Switch sides

x = 23

Subtract 4x from both sides

24 = 5x + 1 - 4x

Simplify 5x + 1 - 4x to x + 1

24 = x + 1

Subtract 1 from both sides

24 - 1 = x
