To solve the equation
\[
\frac{6 + x}{-2} = -5,
\]
you can start by multiplying both sides by -2 to eliminate the fraction:
\[
6 + x = -5 \times -2.
\]
Calculating the right side:
\[
-5 \times -2 = 10,
\]
so the equation becomes:
\[
6 + x = 10.
\]
Next, subtract 6 from both sides to solve for \(x\):
\[
x = 10 - 6.
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
x = 4.
\]
Thus, the solution is
\[
\boxed{4}.
