Let's solve your equation step-by-step. 2x + 3 (x-4) = x-20 Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation. 2x + 3 (x-4) = x-20 Simplify: (Show steps) 5x - 12 = x-20 Step 2: Subtract x from both sides. 5x - 12 - x = x-20 - x 4x - 12 = - 20 Step 3: Add 12 to both sides. 4x - 12 + 12 = - 20 + 12 4x = - 8 Step 4: Divide both sides by 4. 4x / 4 = - 8 / 4 x = - 2 Answer: x=-2
