Step-by-step explanation:
3( X -1 ) - ( x + 4 ) = x + 5 ( x - 1)
3x - 3 - x - 4 = x + 5x - 5
2x - 7 = 6x - 5
-7 + 5 = 6x - 2x
-2 = 4x
x = -2/4
x = -1/2

Answer:
a)=3(x-1)-(x+4)=x+5(x-1)
= 3×x+3×(-1)-(x+4)=x+5×x+5×(-1)
= 3x+(-3)-x-4=x+5x+(-5)
= 3x-3-x-4=x+5x-5
= 3x-x-3-4=6x-5
= 2x-7=6x-5
now ,
we write the equation of ax+b=cx+d
and,
= 4x-7=6x-5
= -7=6x-5-2x
= -7=6x-2x-5
= -7=4x-5
= -7+5=2x
= -2=4x
= -2/4=x
= x=-1/2
