To solve the equation, we can first simplify it by combining like terms:
(x-5) - (x+4) = 0x - 5 - x - 4 = 0x - x - 5 - 4 = 0-9 = 0
This simplifies to -9 = 0, which is not a true statement. Therefore, the original equation (x-5) - (x+4) = 0 does not have a solution.
If the equation also equals 6 as shown in the question, we can write it separately:
(x-5) - (x+4) = 6
Proceeding with the same steps as above:
x - 5 - x - 4 = 6x - x - 5 - 4 = 6-9 = 6
As -9 does not equal 6, this means that the equation (x-5) - (x+4) = 6 is also not valid and has no solution.
