Given the equation:
[tex]-4-(x-2)=5x+6[/tex]We will find the value of x as follows:
[tex]-4-x+2=5x+6[/tex]combine the like terms:
[tex]\begin{gathered} -5x-x=6-2+4 \\ -6x=8 \end{gathered}[/tex]divide both sides by (-6)
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{-6x}{-6}=\frac{8}{-6} \\ \\ x=-\frac{4}{3} \end{gathered}[/tex]So, the answer will be x = -4/3
