Question

What is the answer & work for this equation X+5=4x-4

Answer 1

X=3

Move variable to the left side and change its sign.

x-4x+5=-4

Then move the constant to the right and change its sign

x-4x=-4-5

Collect right terms which will change to be: -3x=-9

Divide both sides by -3 which both would equal 3.

So x=3
