3 - (x - 1) = - 1 - (5 - x)


3 - x + 1 = - 1 - 5 + x


(3 + 1) - x = ( - 1 - 5) + x


4 - x = - 6 + x


4 + 6 = x + x


10 = 2x


(10)/(2) = x


5 = x

Answer:


- 3(x - 1) = - 1(5 - x) \\ \\ 3 - x + 1 = - 5 + x \\ \\ - x - x = - 5 - 3 - 1 \\ \\ - 2x = - 5 - 3 - 1 \\ \\ - 2x = - 9 \\ \\ x = ( - 9)/( - 2) \\ \\ x = 4.5
