Final Answer: [tex]x = -3[/tex]

Steps/Reasons/Explanation:

Question: Solve [tex]4x + 1 = 2x - 5[/tex].

Step 1: Subtract [tex]2x[/tex] from both sides.

[tex]4x + 1 -2x = -5[/tex]

Step 2: Simplify [tex]4x + 1 - 2x[/tex] to [tex]2x + 1[/tex].

[tex]2x + 1 = -5[/tex]

Step 3: Subtract [tex]1[/tex] from both sides.

[tex]2x = -5 - 1[/tex]

Step 4: Simplify [tex]-5 - 1[/tex] to [tex]-6[/tex].

[tex]2x = -6[/tex]

Step 5: Divide both sides by [tex]2[/tex].

[tex]x = -\frac{6}{2}[/tex]

Step 6: Simplify [tex]-\frac{6}{2}[/tex] to [tex]-3[/tex].

[tex]x = -3[/tex]
