There are 20 books in each box.
If each box has 20 books, then the number of books is 20 times the number of boxes. (20 books: 1 box, 40 books: 2 boxes...)
So, using mathematical terms, the number of books is equal to the number of boxes x 20.
Here, it says James packs x boxes of books. This means that we call the number of boxes, x. X could be 1,2,3, or any other number.
So, since there are 20 times as many books as boxes, the number of books is 20 times x.
In math terms, this is written like 20x.
So the answer is 20x.
Answer:
If you have given an equation, you see the x and y in it. Just taking second equation and think any common factor between x's variable. With common factor, multiply both and you will find the value of y and put it in any equation, you will find the value of X.

3x=8
Solve for x by dividing by 3 on both sides
x=8/3
Now plug 8/3 in for x in second equation
3(8/3)+y=15
This gives you
8+y=15
Subtract by 8 on both sides to find y
y=8
Now write it in ordered pair form (x,y)
So your answer is (8/3,8)
