Hi there! :)

[tex]\large\boxed{x = -6}[/tex]

Solve for x:

4x + (-3) = 5x + 3

Adding a negative number is simply subtracting, therefore:

4x - 3 = 5x + 3

Subtract 4x from both sides:

4x - 4x - 3 = 5x - 4x + 3

-3 = x + 3

Subtract 3 from both sides:

-3 - 3 = x + 3 - 3

-6 = x

Answer:

[tex]x=-6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable.

[tex]4x+(-3)=5x+3[/tex]

[tex]4x=5x+6[/tex]

[tex]0=x+6[/tex]

[tex]x=-6[/tex]

Hope this helps!
