Answer:
Simplifying
4x + -5 = 6x + 5
Reorder the terms:
-5 + 4x = 6x + 5
Reorder the terms:
-5 + 4x = 5 + 6x
Solving
-5 + 4x = 5 + 6x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-6x' to each side of the equation.
-5 + 4x + -6x = 5 + 6x + -6x
Combine like terms: 4x + -6x = -2x
-5 + -2x = 5 + 6x + -6x
Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0
-5 + -2x = 5 + 0
-5 + -2x = 5
Add '5' to each side of the equation.
-5 + 5 + -2x = 5 + 5
Combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0
0 + -2x = 5 + 5
-2x = 5 + 5
Combine like terms: 5 + 5 = 10
-2x = 10
Divide each side by '-2'.
x = -5
Simplifying
x = -5
