4x+1-5x=5-(x+4)
Do the parenthesis first which’s
4x+1-5x=-5x-20
Now we have to combine the like terms
Which’s -x+1=-5x-20
Now we have to put the x together
-x+1=-5x-20
-x. -x
1=4x-20
Also we need to put the x by itself so we will add 20 to both sides
1=4x-20
+20 +20
Which is 21=4x
Now we have to divide the both sides by 4 to get the x by itself
21/4=4x/4
So the answer will be 21/4=x
