To solve for x, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation.
First, we can simplify the equation by combining like terms:
5x + 2 = 3x - 20
Subtracting 3x from both sides:
2x + 2 = -20
Subtracting 2 from both sides:
2x = -22
Finally, dividing both sides by 2:
x = -11
Therefore, the solution is x = -11.
