subtract them, just like you added: 
4x + 10 - (-5x +20) 
The minus turns (-5x + 20) into the opposite, or 5x - 20 
4x + 10 + 5x - 20 
9x - 10
I really hope this helps. 
1. Do the opposite of addition (subtraction)

[tex]4x - 10 - (-5x + 20)[/tex]

2. Change this equation (-5x - 20) into a positive (5x + 20)

[tex]4x - 10 + 5x - 20[/tex]

[tex]9x - 10[/tex]
