Answer: x = -11
Step-By-Step:
We can start by combining like terms on the left side.
-20 - x = 4x - (3x - 2)
Now we need to distribute the negative on the right side.
-20 - x = 4x - 3x + 2
Now combine like terms on the right.
-20 - x = x + 2
Now add 20 to the other side
- x = x + 22
Subtract x from the left side.
-2x = 22
Now divide by -2.
x = -11
