I take it you want the value for x.

Solution

4(x-5)-(6x + 1)= 2x -19                       Remove the Brackets.

4x - 20 - 6x - 1 = 2x - 19                   Combine like terms

-2x - 21 = 2x - 19                              Add 2x to both sides

-2x-21+2x = 2x + 2x - 19                  Combine

-21 = 4x - 19                                     Add 19 to both sides

-21+19 = 4x -19 + 19                          Combine like terms

-2 = 4x                                              Divide by 4

-2/4 = x

x = - 1/2

Answer: x = - 1/2

or x = -0.5
