-1 * 4 = -4
-1 * x = -x
Combine both
-4 - x = 6
Add 4 to both sides
-x = 10, x = -10
Solution: x = -10

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\boxed{x=-10}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello.

The Distributive Property states that

a(b+c)=ab+ac

Simplify:

-1(4+x)=6

-4-x=6

Add 4 to both sides:

-4+4-x=6+4

-x=10

Divide both sides by -1 in order to get rid of the minus sign:

x=-10

And we're done!

I hope it helps & have an outstanding day!
