Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]4-(x+1) =6[/tex]

Distribute the negative

[tex]4 - x - 1 = 6[/tex]

Combine like terms on Left Hand Side

[tex]- x + 3 = 6[/tex]

Substract 3 from both sides

[tex]-x = 3[/tex]

Divide both sides by -1 to get rid of the negative

∴ [tex]x = - 3[/tex]
