ax+4=conjugate(a-1)
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
ax=conjugate(a-1)-4
Subtract 4 from both sides.
ax=conjugate(a)-5
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{ax}{a}=\frac{conjugate(a)-5}{a}
Divide both sides by a.
x=\frac{conjugate(a)-5}{a}
Dividing by a undoes the multiplication by a.
