Answer:
x=15
Step-by-step explanation:
4 I x-5 I +20 = 60 Distribute the 4
4x - 20 + 20 = 60 Combine like terms :
4x - 0 = 60
4x = 60 Divide:
x = 15
Check : 4 I 15 - 5 I + 20 = 60
4 I10I +20 = 60
40 + 20 = 60
60 = 60 ✔
Hope this helps :)
so simplify the first half of the equation
4x-20+20 = 60
combine like terms
4x = 60
divide both sides by 4
