x\times 5+5=6x
Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.
x\times 5+5-6x=0
Subtract 6x from both sides.
-x+5=0
Combine x\times 5 and -6x to get -x.
-x=-5
Subtract 5 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=5
Multiply both sides by -1.
