Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
first do distributive property
4*5 = 20
4*-2x = -8x
combine like terms
20+3 = 23
now we have: 23-8x = 7
solve for x
8-x = 7-23 = -16
divide by -8
x = -16/-8 = 2
x = 2
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
20-8x+3=7
-8x+3+20=7
-8x+23=7
-8x=7-23
-8x=-16
x=-16/-8
×=16/8
×= 2/1
x=2
