Question

A. 5x-2+x=x-4 B. 5x+x=x-4

Answer 1

1. x= -2/5 or -0.4
2. x= -4/5 or -0.8

Explanation:

If you are solving for x then you should get something like this

A 5x-2+x=x- 4 B. 5x+x=x-4

6x-2=-4. 6x=x-4

6x-2-x=-4. 6x-x=-4

5x-2+2=-4+2. 5x=-4

5x/5=-2/5. 5x/5=-4/5

x=-2/5. x=-4/5

I hope this helped you out!
