5(-2x + 1) = -9(x + 1)

Simplify.

-10x + 5 = -9x - 9

Add 9x to both sides.

-10x + 9x + 5 = -9

Then, subtract 5 from both sides.

-10x + 9x = -9 - 5

Simplify.

-x = -14

Divide both sides by -1.

x = 14

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

5(-2x + 1) = -9(x +1)

-10x + 5 = -9x - 9

add 9 to 5 on the other side

-10x + 14 = -9x

add 10x to -9x

x = 14
