Let's simplify the equation:

5x - 1 = 10x - 4 - 5x + 3

Combining like terms, we have:

5x - 1 = 5x - 1

Notice that the variables and coefficients on both sides of the equation are the same. This means that the equation is an identity, and any value of x will satisfy the equation. In other words, this equation has infinitely many solutions.
