Answer:

After the distribution of the 5 and the addition of x to both sides, the x variable is cancelled out leaving 1 = - 20.

This statement is false. Hence, no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

1 - x = 5(x - 4) - 6x (Distribute 5)

1 - x = 5x - 20 - 6x (Combine like terms)

1 - x = -x - 20  add x to both sides

1 = - 20 False
