Answer:
x = 8
Explanation:
The question is not clear: I assume that in this problem we have the following equation
[tex]5x+20=6x+12[/tex]
And we have to find the value of x.
In order to solve the equation, we start by subtracting 12 from both sides, and we get:
[tex]5x+20-12=6x+12-12\\5x+8=6x[/tex]
Now we subtract 5x from both sides of the equation, and we get:
[tex]5x+8-5x=6x-5x\\8=x[/tex]
Therefore, the solution to the equation is
x = 8
