1 Answer

7 votes

Answer:

x = 1

Explanation:

Set up the rational expression with the same denominator over the entire equation.

Since the expression on each side of the equation has the same denominator, the numerators must be equal

5x =4x+1

Move all terms containing x to the left side of the equation.

Hope this can help you
