1+9+x\times 4=2x
Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.
10+x\times 4=2x
Add 1 and 9 to get 10.
10+x\times 4-2x=0
Subtract 2x from both sides.
10+2x=0
Combine x\times 4 and -2x to get 2x.
2x=-10
Subtract 10 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-10}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
x=-5
Divide -10 by 2 to get -5.
