|4x+5|=4-x^{2}+3+x^{2}
Consider \left(2-x\right)\left(2+x\right). Multiplication can be transformed into difference of squares using the rule: \left(a-b\right)\left(a+b\right)=a^{2}-b^{2}. Square 2.
|4x+5|=7-x^{2}+x^{2}
Add 4 and 3 to get 7.
|4x+5|=7
Combine -x^{2} and x^{2} to get 0.
4x+5=7 4x+5=-7
Use the definition of absolute value.
4x=2 4x=-12
Subtract 5 from both sides of the equation.
x=\frac{1}{2} x=-3
Divide both sides by 4.
