Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Group like terms which will then make the equation 4x-2(x-5)=5x-5

2) Expand the equation (multiply) which will make it 4x-2x+10=5x-5

3) Add similar elements; 2x+10=5x-5

4) Subtract 10 from both sides; 2x=5x-15

5) Subtract 5x from both sides; -3x=-15

6) Divide by 3; x=5
