When you use the Distributive Property, we will find...
5x - 4 = -6x - 4
Eliminate 4 by adding it to both sides.
5x = -6x
Add 6x to both sides and we get 11x = 0.
11x = 0
Divide both sides by 11.
x=0
The only mistake Megan made was when adding 5x with Megan accidentally subtracting 5x from the other side.
For this problem:
3(2x − 4) = 5x − 1
Distribute
6x - 12 = 5x - 1
Add 1 to both sides
6x - 11 = 5x
Subtract 6x from both sides
-11 = -x
Divide both sides by -1.
x = 11.

Y=- 6
Because the slope is 0, the equation would be y=0x+b
-6=0+b
b=-6
Negative abscissa, zero ordinate is between Quadrant II and Quadrant III.
