Answer:

-6x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by multiplying (x-1) by -4 and (x+1) by -2.

Then you will have the equation 5-4x+4-2x-2

Next, just find your like-terms.

Your like-terms are 5,4,-2 and -4x, 2x

Then, for easier for calculation, just use the equation:

-4x-2x+5x+4-2

Your final answer should then be:

-6x+7
