3x+5=20 3x + 5 = 20 3x+5=20x=? x = \text{?} x=?
To solve the equation 3x+5=20 3x + 5 = 20 3x+5=20, follow these steps:
1. Subtract 5 from both sides: 3x=20−5 3x = 20 - 5 3x=20−5
2. Simplify the right side: 3x=15 3x = 15 3x=15
3. Divide both sides by 3: x=153 x = \frac{15}{3} x=315
4. Solve: x=5 x = 5 x=5
