Answer:


\boxed {x = 2}

Explanation:

Solve for the value of
x:


4x - 1 = -x + 9

-Take
x and add it to
4x:


4x - 1 + x = -x + x + 9


5x - 1 = 9

-Add
1 to both sides:


5x - 1 + 1 = 9 + 1


5x = 10

-Divide both sides by
5:


(5x)/(5) = (10)/(5)


\boxed {x = 2}

Therefore, the value of
x is
2.
