    x = - 25/3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    -5 in both sides

    3x = - 25

    divide by 3 both sides

    x = - 25/3

    to find out what x is you'll need to get 3x by itself:

    3x+5=-20

    3x+5-5=-20-5 Subtract 5 from both sides

    3x/3=-25/3 Divide both sides by 3.

    x=-25/3 or around 8.3.
