5 – (3x + 4)
5 – 1(3x) – 1(+4)
5 – 3x – 4
5 – 4 – 3x
1 – 3x
Now I can solve in the usual manner:
1 - 3x = 1
-1 -1
-----------
-3x = 0
--- --
-3 -3
x = 0
Is "x = 0" a valid solution? Yes, indeed, it is, because zero is a valid number. It's not that the solution is "nothing"; it's that the solution is "something", and that this "something" is zero. So my answer is:
x = 0
