Question

Solve: the quantity 2x minus 20 divided by 3 = 2x

Answer 1

2x_20/3 = 2x

2x_20/3*3 = 2x*3

2x_20 = 6x

2x_6x = 20

-4x = 20

-4x/-4x = 20/-4x

X= -5

Answer 2

x=-5

Explanation:

`(2x-20)/(3)=2x`

Multiply both sides by 3:

`2x-20=6x`

Subtract 2x from both sides:

`-20=4x`

Divide both sides by 4:

`x=-5`
