For this problem we have the following equation given:


-6(1-x)=5(1-x)

We can distribute the terms in both sides of the equation and we got:


-6+6x=5-5x

Now we can add 5x in both sides of the equation and we got:


6x+5x-6=5

And now we can add in both sides of the equation 6 and we got:


11x=11

And if we divide both sides of the equation by 11 we got:


x=(11)/(11)=1
