____________________________________________________
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x in the equation: 3(x-4)+6=5(x-1)+1
[tex]3(x-4)+6=5(x-1)+1\\\\\text{Distribute the 3}\\\\3x - 12 + 6 =5(x-1)+1\\\\\text{Distribute the 5}\\\\3x - 12 + 6 =5x-5+1\\\\3x - 12 + 6 =5x-4\\\\3x - 6 =5x-4\\\\\text{Subtract 5x to both sides}\\\\-2x-6=-4\\\\\text{Add 6 to both sides}\\\\-2x=2\\\\\text{Divide by -2}\\\\x=-1[/tex]

Hello there!
3(x+4)+6=5(x-1)+1
Use the Disrtributive Property:
3x+12+6=5x-5+1
3x+18=5x-4
3x-5x=-4-18
-2x=-22
Divide both sides by -2 to isolate x:
x=11
Hope this helps you!
