Answer:

x = -5

Explanation:

-6x - 15 = 4x + 35

+ 15 + 15

-6x = 4x + 50

-4x - 4x

-10x = 50

-10x/-10 = 50/-10

x = -5

Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.

-6x-15+15=4x+35+15

-6x=4x+50
(Subtract 4 on both sides)

-10x=50
(Divide by 10 on both sides)

x=5
