First you must distribute the 5 throughout the parentheses to receive the following equation: 5x+15=20. Then you must subtract the 15 from both sides of the equation to find: 5x=5. And finally you must divide each side by 5 to isolate your x term to receive a final answer of x=1. Hope this helps! :)
