$\boxed{x = -17}$

✽ Simplify both sides of the equation.

$\frac{x+2}{5}-\frac{x+1}{4}=1$

$\frac{1}{5}x + \frac{2}{5} + \frac{-1}{4} = 1$ (Distribute)

$(\frac{1}{5}x + \frac{-1}{4} ) + (\frac{2}{5} + \frac{-1}{4}) = 1$ (Combine Like Terms)

$\frac{-1}{20}x + \frac{3}{20} = 1$

✽ Subtract 3/20 from both sides.

$\frac{-1}{20}x + \frac{3}{30} - \frac{3}{20} = 1 - \frac{3}{20}$

$\frac{-1}{20}x = \frac{17}{20}$

✽ Multiply both sides by 20/(-1).

$( \frac{20}{-1}) * (\frac{-1}{20}x) = (\frac{20}{-1}) * (\frac{17}{20})$

Hence, x = -17
