5x-1-6x<-5
Subtract 6x from both sides.
-x-1<-5
Combine 5x and -6x to get -x.
-x<-5+1
Add 1 to both sides.
-x<-4
Add -5 and 1 to get -4.
x>\frac{-4}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1. Since -1 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.
x>4
Fraction \frac{-4}{-1} can be simplified to 4 by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.
