5 | ( | x | − | 1 | ) | − | 1 | = | 4 | ( | x | − | 1 | ) | + | 1 |
Left side of the equation = | 5 | x | − | 5 | × | 1 | − | 1 |
= | 5 | x | − | 5 | − | 1 |
= | 5 | x | − | 6 |
5 | x | − | 6 | = | 4 | ( | x | − | 1 | ) | + | 1 |
Right side of the equation = | 4 | x | − | 4 | × | 1 | + | 1 |
= | 4 | x | − | 4 | + | 1 |
= | 4 | x | − | 3 |
5 | x | − | 6 | = | 4 | x | − | 3 |
5 | x | − | 4 | x | = | - | 3 | + | 6 |
x | = | - | 3 | + | 6 |
x | = | - | 3 | + | 6 |
x | = | 3 |
