Solution Steps

To solve the equation \(5x + \frac{5}{9} = \frac{4}{9} + 5x\), we first observe that the terms involving \(x\) on both sides of the equation are identical. This means we can subtract \(5x\) from both sides, leaving us with \(\frac{5}{9} = \frac{4}{9}\). Since this statement is false, the equation has no solution.

Step 1: Simplify the Equation

The given equation is: \[ 5x + \frac{5}{9} = \frac{4}{9} + 5x \] Subtract \(5x\) from both sides to simplify: \[ \frac{5}{9} = \frac{4}{9} \]

Step 2: Analyze the Simplified Equation

The simplified equation \(\frac{5}{9} = \frac{4}{9}\) is a false statement, as \(\frac{5}{9}\) is not equal to \(\frac{4}{9}\).

Final Answer

\(\boxed{\text{no solution}}\)
