multiply both sides of the equation by the LCM of 5 and 6 which is 30

you just multiply x+1 with 6 and 2x-2 with 5
6x+6=10x-10
-4x=-4
x=1

Answer 4

No x is equal to 4 just by looking at it..but im not sure how to mathematically get it

You would have to multiply everything on both sides by 30 (Least common factor of 5 and 6) and then isolate x.
