To rewrite the equation in terms of x, Tilda needs to isolate the term with x on one side of the equation. After subtracting 8 from both sides of the equation, we have:

5y - 8 = 20x

To isolate the term with x, Tilda should divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of x, which is 20. So, she should divide both sides of the equation by 20.
