First equation:
5(x+1)=20 —— distribute the 5 to the x and 1
5x+5=20 ——- subtract 5 from 20
5x=15 ———— divide by 5 from both sides
X=3 ————— answer
Second equation:
5x+1=20——— subtract 1 from 20
5x=19 ———— divide by 5 from both sides
X=19/5———— answer in fraction form
X=3.8————- answer in decimal form

Subtract it and you will find your answer hope this helps
X= -15
First, we want to combine like terms.
4x-10=20+6x
Subtract 4x from both sides
-10=20+2x
Subtract 20 from both sides
-30=2x
Divide by 2 to isolate the variable
X= -15
