15x-90-10\left(x-4\right)=6\left(1-x\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 15 by x-6.
15x-90-10x+40=6\left(1-x\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply -10 by x-4.
5x-90+40=6\left(1-x\right)
Combine 15x and -10x to get 5x.
5x-50=6\left(1-x\right)
Add -90 and 40 to get -50.
5x-50=6-6x
Use the distributive property to multiply 6 by 1-x.
5x-50+6x=6
