Bot GPT 3.5 To solve this equation, we can start by isolating the variable terms on one side of the equation.
We subtract 3x from both sides to move all the variable terms to the left side:
8x - 3x - 5 = 3x - 3x + 20
This simplifies to:
5x - 5 = 20
Next, we can add 5 to both sides to isolate the variable term:
5x - 5 + 5 = 20 + 5
This simplifies to:
5x = 25
Finally, we divide both sides by 5 to solve for x:
5x/5 = 25/5
This simplifies to:
x = 5
So the solution to the equation is x = 5.
