$\bold{-4+3x=20}$

We'll have to make x the subject.

First, write the equation as it is.

$\bold{-4+3x=20}$

We'll have to cancel -4, To cancel -4 we'll have to +4 to 20 because the opposite of Subtraction is addition.

$\bold{3x=24}$

Now, we'll have to cancel 3, To cancel 3 we'll have to divide 24 by 3, because the opposite of multiplication is division.

$\bold{(3x)/(3)=(24)/(3)}$

$\large\boxed{\bold{x=8}}$

To check your answer is correct:

$\bold{-4+(3×8)=20}$

Therefore, the value of x is 8.
