Answer: 2=x

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-1 + 2x-1 = 5x

First combine like terms together

4x-1 + 2x-1 is 4x+2x-1-1

4x+2x-1-1 =6x-2

4x-1 + 2x-1=6x-2

6x-2=5x

The oppisite of 6x is -6x so -6x on both sides of equation to keep it balanced

6x-6x-2=5x-6x

0-2=-1x

-2=-1x

Divide both sides of the equation by -1 since -1 is being multiplied by x and the oppisite of multiply is divide

-2/-1=-1x=-1

2=x
