<PRE><B>Question 4149</B>
Get all the x-terms to one side (I chose the right side) and all the non-x terms on the other side (I chose the left side).

Begin by adding +x to each side.

2c - x + x = 4x + x + c - 5b
2c = 5x + c - 5b


Next add -c and +5b to each side of the equation.
2c - c + 5b = 5x + c - 5b - c + 5b


  c + 5b = 5x


Divide both sides by 5

{{{ (c+5b)/5 = x}}} </PRE>
