| 4 | ( | x | − | 1 | ) | + | 5 | + | 3 | ( | x | + | 2 | ) | = | 0 |
| Left side of the equation = | 4 | x | − | 4 | × | 1 | + | 5 | + | 3 | ( | x | + | 2 | ) |
| = | 4 | x | − | 4 | + | 5 | + | 3 | ( | x | + | 2 | ) |
| = | 4 | x | + | 1 | + | 3 | ( | x | + | 2 | ) |
| = | 4 | x | + | 1 | + | 3 | x | + | 3 | × | 2 |
| = | 4 | x | + | 1 | + | 3 | x | + | 6 |
| = | 7 | x | + | 7 |
| 7 | x | + | 7 | = | 0 |
| 7 | x | = | 0 | − | 7 |
| 7 | x | = | - | 7 |
| x | = | - | 7 | ÷ | 7 |
| = | - | 7 | × | 1 7 |
| = | - | 1 | × | 1 |
| x | = | - | 1 |
