Question5) $\frac{x+1}{4}+\frac{x-5}{6}=-1$

Studdy Solution
Set the combined fraction equal to $-1$ and solve for $x$:
$$\frac{5x - 7}{12} = -1$$
Multiply both sides by 12 to eliminate the fraction:
$$5x - 7 = -12$$
Add 7 to both sides to isolate the term with $x$:
$$5x = -12 + 7$$ $$5x = -5$$
Divide both sides by 5 to solve for $x$:
$$x = \frac{-5}{5}$$ $$x = -1$$
The value of $x$ is:
$$\boxed{-1}$$
