There are no solutions

Explanation:

#4(h-5)+5=3h-6+h#
Distribute
#(4)(h)+(4)(-5)+5=3h - 6 +h#
#4h - 20 + 5 = 3h - 6 + h#
#4h - 15 = 4h - 6#
Subtract #color(red)(4h)# from both sides
#4h - 15 color(red)(-4h) = 4h - 6 color(red)(-4h)#
#-15 = -6#
Now we can add #color(green)(15)# to both sides
#-15 color(green)(+15) = -6 color(green)(+15)#
#0 = 9#
