2fx+f+2f\left(1-2x\right)=x-5
Use the distributive property to multiply f by 2x+1.
2fx+f+2f-4xf=x-5
Use the distributive property to multiply 2f by 1-2x.
2fx+3f-4xf=x-5
Combine f and 2f to get 3f.
-2fx+3f=x-5
Combine 2fx and -4xf to get -2fx.
-2fx+3f-x=-5
Subtract x from both sides.
-2fx-x=-5-3f
Subtract 3f from both sides.
\left(-2f-1\right)x=-5-3f
Combine all terms containing x.
\left(-2f-1\right)x=-3f-5
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-2f-1\right)x}{-2f-1}=\frac{-3f-5}{-2f-1}
Divide both sides by -1-2f.
x=\frac{-3f-5}{-2f-1}
Dividing by -1-2f undoes the multiplication by -1-2f.
x=\frac{3f+5}{2f+1}
Divide -5-3f by -1-2f.
