    x=1

    Step-by-step explanation:

    2 (5x + 8) = 6x + 20

    Divide each side by 2

    2/2 (5x + 8) = 6x/2 + 20/2

    5x+8 = 3x+10

    Subtract 3x from each side

    5x-3x + 8 = 3x-3x+10

    2x+8 = 10

    Subtract 8 from each side

    2x+8-8=10-8

    2x=2

    Divide by 2

    2x/2 = 2/2

    x=1
