    Answer:

    x=-3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First u have to bring te variable to one side and numbers for the other side. so to remove -x from the right side add x and as to balance the eqaution u have to add x for the left side too.

    x+1+x=-x+(-5)+x

    then it becomes,

    2x+1 = -5

    Now to remove +1from the left side substract 1 from both sides.

    2x+1 -1 = -5-1

    Now the equation is like,

    2x =-6

    Now divide the equation by 2

    2x/2 = -6/2

    then,

    x = -3

    So itis simply like this,

    x+1 = x-5

    2x=-6

    x=-3
