  -1/3x

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the term 'a' such that ...

  (5/6x -4) + a = (1/2x -4)

Add 4-1/2x to both sides.

  (5/6 -1/2)x -4 +4 +a = 0

  (5/6 -3/6)x + a = 0 . . . . . . express the fractions using a common denominator

  1/3x + a = 0 . . . . . . . . . . simplify the difference

  a = -1/3x . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 1/3x

The term you can add to make the desired equivalent is -1/3x.
