To evaluate the expression $$\frac{-x + 10}{x - 9}$$ for $$x = 4$$:

1. **Substitute $$x = 4$$ into the numerator and the denominator:**

$$
   \text{Numerator} = -4 + 10 = 6
   $$
   
   $$
   \text{Denominator} = 4 - 9 = -5
   $$

2. **Form the fraction with the computed numerator and denominator:**

$$
   \frac{6}{-5} = -\frac{6}{5}
   $$

So, the expression evaluates to $$-\frac{6}{5}$$ when $$x = 4$$.

$$
\frac{-x + 10}{x - 9} = -\frac{6}{5}
$$
When $$ x = 4 $$, the expression $$\frac{-x + 10}{x - 9}$$ equals $$-\frac{6}{5}$$.
