Answer:

All real numbers are solutions!

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

5x+4=9+5(x−1)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5x+4=9+5(x−1)

5x+4=9+(5)(x)+(5)(−1)(Distribute)

5x+4=9+5x+−5

5x+4=(5x)+(9+−5)(Combine Like Terms)

5x+4=5x+4

Step 2: Subtract 5x from both sides.

5x+4−5x=5x+4−5x

4=4

Step 3: Subtract 4 from both sides.

4−4=4−4

0=0
