789 minus x is 20

idk if u subtract or add form which side

789 - x = 20

You have to isolate for x, meaning move the 789 to the right side (making it -789):

-x = 20 - 789
-x = -769

The issue is x is negative, so we would divide by -1 to make -x, positive. What we do on one side, we do to the other.

-x/-1 = -769/-1
x = 769

Therefore, x = 769
