$x = - \frac{47}{10} or - 4.7$ $x = -47/10 or -4.7$

As per the question, we have

$- 4 (x + 6) + 5 = 6 (x + 4) + 4$ $-4(x + 6) + 5 = 6(x + 4) + 4$

$:. -4x - 24 + 5 = 6x + 24 + 4$

$:. -19 - 28 = 6x + 4x$

$:. - 47 = 10x$

$:. x= -47/10 = -4.7$

Hence, $x = -47/10 or -4.7$ is the only solution to this equation.

How do you solve -4( x + 6) + 5= 6( x + 4) + 4−4(x+6)+5=6(x+4)+4-4( x + 6) + 5= 6( x + 4) + 4?
