20=5−38x
(1 point)
x=

Answer 1

To solve the equation \( 20 = 5 - 38x \), follow these steps:

1. Isolate the term with \( x \): \[ 20 - 5 = -38x \] \[ 15 = -38x \]

2. Solve for \( x \) by dividing both sides by \(-38\): \[ x = \frac{15}{-38} \] \[ x = -\frac{15}{38} \]

Thus, the solution is: \[ x = -\frac{15}{38} \]
