-5
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The equation given is 5x - (3x - 1) = x - 4. To solve this equation, we first distribute the negative sign to the terms inside the parentheses, resulting in 5x - 3x + 1 = x - 4. Combining like terms, we have 2x + 1 = x - 4. Next, we subtract x from both sides of the equation, giving us x + 1 = -4. Finally, we subtract 1 from both sides, resulting in x = -5. Therefore, the value of x that satisfies the equation is -5.
