My question is- Solve completely: $ ax + b - \frac{5x + 2ab}{5} = \frac{1}{4}$

Any guidance to solve this question would be helpful.

Hint: you have $ax + b - x - \frac{2}{5}ab = \frac{1}{4}.$

  • move all the terms that has an $x$ in them to one side and everything to the other side: $ ax - x = \frac{1}{4} + \frac{2}{5}ab - b$

  • Factor out $x$ from each term. (on the left)

  • Divide by the "stuff" that is multiplied by $x$
