Answer:

x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{2x-20}{3}=2x$

Multiply both sides by 3:

$2x-20=6x$

Subtract 2x from both sides:

$-20=4x$

Divide both sides by 4:

$x=-5$

Hope this helps!

Answer:

2x_20/3 = 2x

2x_20/3*3 = 2x*3

2x_20 = 6x

2x_6x = 20

-4x = 20

-4x/-4x = 20/-4x

X= -5

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

By first drawing a photo, pasted below, you can plot your points. Then use the formula:

a/c = b/d to plan out your equation

3x - 8/x = 16/x

Cross multiply so you then have:

16x = 3x^2 - 8x

24x = 3x^2

8 = x

To check:

3(8) - 8 = 16

24 - 8 = 16

16 = 16
