Answer:
for 18 x is 6 and for 20 it is 11
Step-by-step explanation:
For 18, since -1+2x and 5+x is the same thing, set up and equation. WE can simplify to -1+x=5 and then we get x=6
For 20, 18 is 11 since 18=-4+2x. If we simplify we get 22=2x then we can use algebra to say that x=11
Hope this helps :)

Simplify:
−3=12y−5(2y−7)
−3=12y+(−5)(2y)+(−5)(−7)(Distribute)
−3=12y+−10y+35
−3=(12y+−10y)+(35)(Combine Like Terms)
−3=2y+35
Flip the equation.
2y+35=−3
Subtract 35 from both sides.
2y+35−35=−3−35
2y=−38
Divide both sides by 2.
2y/2=−38/2
y=−19
