The solution

You have entered [src]
-3*(1 + 4*x) = -4*x - 5
$$- 3 \left(4 x + 1\right) = - 4 x - 5$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-3*(1+4*x) = -4*x-5

Expand brackets in the left part
-3*1-3*4*x = -4*x-5

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 12 x = - 4 x - 2$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$\left(-8\right) x = -2$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -8
x = -2 / (-8)

We get the answer: x = 1/4
