To solve the equation, you need to isolate the variable x.
Starting with the equation:
(4x - 10) + 5 = x - 11
First, combine like terms on both sides of the equation:
4x - 5 = x - 6
Next, move all the terms with x to one side of the equation and the constant terms to the other side. You can do this by subtracting x from both sides and adding 5 to both sides:
4x - x = -6 + 5
This simplifies to:
3x = -1
Now, divide both sides of the equation by 3 to solve for x:
x = -1/3
So, the solution to the equation is x = -1/3.
