    5x-20 = 2x+10

    3x-20 = 10

    3x = 30

    x=10

    x = 10

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Step 1: Distribute parenthesis

    5x - 20 = 2x + 10

    Step 2: Add 20 to both sides

    5x = 2x + 30

    Step 3: Subtract 2x from both sides

    3x = 30

    Step 4: Divide by 3

    x = 10
