Answer:
X=28
Step-by-step explanation:
3x-8=2x+20. So x=28
Every even number is 2 away from the last.
0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14...etc.
If we had an even number p, then the next three even numbers would be
p+2, p+4, and p+6.
<em>(If we had an odd number p, then the next three even numbers would be</em>
<em>p+1, p+3, and p+5. I'm not sure if p is even is implied in the question. Technically the answer would be p - p mod 2 + 2, where p is an interger...that gets into more technical function stuff, though.)</em>
56 because you gotta multiply it

4x = 48
x = 12
