4 x - 9 = - 5 x - 99 Add 5 x to both sides

4 x - 9 + 5 x = -5 x - 99 + 5

9 x - 9 = - 99 Add 9 to both sides

9 x - 9 + 9 = - 99 + 9

9 x = - 90 Divide both sides by 9

9 x / 9 = - 90 / 9

x = - 10

Proof:

4 x - 9 = - 5 x - 99

4 * ( - 10 ) - 9 = - 5 * ( - 10 ) - 99

- 40 - 9 = 50 - 99

- 49 = - 49
4 x - 9 = - 5 x - 99 Add 5 x to both sides

4 x - 9 + 5 x = - 5 x - 99 + 5 x
