To solve for x in the equation 20 = 5 - 3/8x, we first need to isolate x on one side of the equation.
Adding 3/8x to both sides, we have:
20 + 3/8x = 5
Subtracting 20 from both sides, we get:
3/8x = -15
Multiplying both sides by 8/3, we have:
x = -40
Therefore, the solution for x is -40.
Solve for x.
20 = 5 − 3/8x
