Answer:

first thing to do is combine like terms

now you would have -x-4=4

this is because you added -6x+5x

now you would add 4 to each side

now you would have-x=8

then you would divide the negative because x has to be positive

now you would have x= -8

that is your answer. if you any questions just ask :D
