Hi there! I can help you with this! First, let's combine like terms and do everything for the right side of the problem. When you do the distributive property, you get 32x - 40. Combine like terms and you'll get 32x - 60. Now, the inequality is 20x = 32x - 60. First, let's subtract 32x from both sides to get the integer by itself. When you do that, you get -12x = -60. Now, divide each side by -12 to isolate the "x". -60/-12 is 5. Let's plug it in. 20 * 5 is 100. 32 * 5 is 160. 160 - 60 is 100. 100 = 100. There. x = 5.

$\boxed{R_{4}=20\Omega}$

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

If resistors are in series, so the current $I$ is the same in all of them. In this problem we have four resistors. So, we can get a relationship between the Equivalent resistance of series combination and the four resistors as follows:
