You first combine like terms - 1x and - 4x to make the equation 21=6-5x then subtract 6 from itself to cancel it out and from 21, 15=5x where x = 3

Well first you add like terms
21=6-1x-4x
21=6-5x
now, move your x value in front of the =
21=6-5x
-5x - 5x
21-5x=6
next, move the 21 to behind the =
21-5x=6
-21 - 21
-5x=6-21
then do 6-21, which equals - 15, so
-5x=-15
next, divide both sides by - 5
-5x=-15
-5 - 5
x=3
