This Would Be Divide Both Sides By 5. You Have To Isolate The Variable To One Side Of The Equation So It Is By Itself.

Answer:

Divide both sides by -5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtracting 4 from each side of the equation gives us

4-5x-4 = 59-4

-5x = 55

The last number we have to cancel is -5, by division:

-5x/-5 = 55/-5

x = -11
