Option a:
56+8 x=80

Option d:
2 x=6

Option e:
x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression is
(1)/(4)(8 x+56)=20

simplifying, we have,


8x+56=80

Subtracting,


8x=24

Dividing, both sides by 8, we have,


x=3

Option a:
56+8 x=80

Solving we have,


8x+56=80

Subtracting,


8x=24

Dividing, both sides by 8, we have,


x=3

Hence, Option a is the correct answer.

Option b:
19=20-8 x

Solving,


-1=-8x

Dividing, both sides by -8, we have,


x=(1)/(8)

Hence, Option b is not the correct answer.

Option c:
2 x+14=5

Simplifying,


2x=-11\\x=-(11)/(2)

Hence, Option c is not the correct answer.

Option d:
2 x=6

Dividing, both sides by 2, we have,


x=3

Hence, Option d is the correct answer.

Option e:
x=3

Hence, Option e is the correct answer.
